Dear All
Here is my experience with praising a child who used to behave rudely and my trials using appreciation as a tool to overcome it.
SB, 8 yrs old, expected appreciation for every little thing. She also used to speak rudely. I therefore stopped appreciating her for some time. I promised that if she spoke politely using kind words, she would become the ‘star of the week’, a title written on the resource room board. She struggled for a week to get appreciation and finally she had to use polite words while speaking and earned the title. She is more polite now.
