Re: Do you pay for grades?

  • My 16yo gets rewarded for good grades, but it depends.  She and her 2 college-aged uncles are living back in Virginia, in our house, so she already gets an allowance for things she needs.  She gets privileges for keeping up her grades.  She usually has all A's but sometimes gets a B or C......shes in her district's Visual Arts Academy, so takes Academy classes on top of regular courses (2 college level ones), and plays travel soccer with school sports (cross country in the fall, soccer in the spring)..... For keeping up with her school work she gets unlimited texting/calls on her cell phone, got to get her permit, and drives....she gets new articles of clothing every month or two, because its hard for her to find clothes that fit her right and that she likes, we are flexible with this.  She does get rewarded at the end of the semesters, because she works amazingly hard, even without having her parents hovering over.  My wife and her mother raised an amazing young lady, who is responsible, caring, mature, smart, and creative.  Proud to have the privilege of adding her to my family, and more than willing to reward her hard work....but maybe not with straight cash.....
