Punishment or Reward: Which Works Better on Behavior?

[HeyItzMeDawg]

Neither punishment nor reward are very effective in the long term. Motivation doesn't come from bribery or threats, it comes from an inherent sense of self-worth and commitment.

My name is Han seong, I was never hit as a child. Now I have an IQ of over 150. I am a genius! Parents, don't spank your kids if you want them to be smart like me!

I was spanked a lot as a child. I am now a

math teacher with an engineer degree, math degree equivalent, and master in technology, I outright own my house clear and free, my $40,000 SUV, free and clear, my commuter car free and clear, I have a pretty wife, and a little girl, she can read over 100 words before two years old, and can read simple kinder books now at 2 years old. Oh by the way I believe in GOD.
