Information on the Behavior Bucks System
This lens contains information about a positive parenting system that my wife and I developed based on a structured, token economy system for our kids. This lens also contains links to other relevant lenses, websites, and books to help you become a better parent.
We call our system The Behavior Bucks System. The system includes a book describing the system and all of the supporting resources to make it work.
We developed the system through lots of trial-and-error testing with ways to apply sound motivation principles. We used it with great success when our kids were younger (From 4 to about 12 years old).
