I am pretty sure bribery is frowned upon. According to Pinterest quotes if you bribe yourself with food you are treating yourself like a dog. Lets be honest with ourselves dogs are kind of cool, aren't they. But in reality bribery is pretty powerful. Think about it, if you tell a small child that their good behavior will be rewarded with a McDonald's happy meal they are like 76% more likely to behave. That number isn't technical and probably false, I don't think my guiding of small humans professor would approve of that statement but he also says things like "don't say don't" And "no nos" so can we really trust the guy? Anyways bribery is pretty darn powerful. And that's why I use it on myself probably like twice a day. "Kelsey if you go to class you don't have to be ashamed of the root beer you are going to drink on the way to work." "Kelsey if you are nice to your friends you can go play again tomorrow." "Kelsey if you don't scream/cry/kick/bite/yell at/ or run away from the doctors at your two appointments this week you can go out to Bluebird restaurant. "
And that's where we will end this. Wish me luck!
Important side note: No my class isn't really called Guiding of Small Humans, its actually called Child Guidance
