Hi friend, The secret tool to raising children who are self driven is... Positive consequences! Wait. HOW? Children who are taught to obey because of punishment or fear are more focused on avoiding pain than on doing what is right. Show Me How Positive consequences help children learn to be CHOOSERS.
