There have always been a number of people considering that rewarding their children with extra pocket money is one of the best ways to keep them studying hard.
But is it true or are they just not able to see the reverse side of the issue?
As far as I am concerned, I believe that such a common method can bring young generations a lot of harm.
First of all, it may reflect on child’s behaviour and train of thought.
The student is likely to start thinking that he must be rewarded for whatever he does, and hence, it will make him quite mingy, greedy and mercenary.
What makes it worse is that, apart from that, it may mislead your children so that they cannot see the veritable purpose of their education.
They should comprehend that the major aim of theirs is not getting their parents’ money, but being able to gain their own one.
Therefore, such encouragements hinder your kids’ mind from the true conception of the matter.
However, there is another point of view.
They say that, by praising your child, it is easier to keep them under control and get from them what you want to.
Nevertheless, I cannot agree with that opinion since, to my mind, too much money can only corrupt a green mind and will certainly teach nothing worthy.
To conclude, I shall point that, according to the arguments above, it is clear: encouraging students by means of extra money is not the best way of educating, and a good parent will always find a better method while bringing his child up.
