If we constantly and consistently reinforce positive behavior, the child will constantly be motivated to do good (when I do good, I feel good).<\/h3>\n

In order to improve in this area, we need to work harder to notice good behavior. We naturally tend to notice the bad. How would you like to live in a house where everything you did wrong was pointed out to you and everything you did right was taken for granted? We have to try to notice everything that our children do that is good. Praise them for sitting on the couch and not jumping on it. Anything you would point out if they did wrong, you have to praise if they do it right. If you would remind your child to do something, then you have to thank him for doing it without a reminder. A child shouldn\u2019t have to go overboard to be noticed. A normal day should be praised.<\/h3>\n

What if a child complains while doing something? Complaining is not bad. Not everybody likes the same things. Be happy that your child did what he was supposed to do anyway, even though he\u00a0didn’t\u00a0like it.<\/h3>\n
