chapter 12 blog #2

For chapter 12 I chose the concept Reward behavior which simply means when a person is trying to influence another person by rewarding them for praising them. Growing up, I think that all of this had this done to us at least once. As for me, i remember when my parents promised me that we can all go on a cruise on year if I got all A's and maybe one B in all my classes. I worked so hard for that and when I got the grades that they wanted, we were all able to go on our cruise. This happens with people getting their drivers liscense as well. Parents tend to give rewards for doing something in their liking. For example, if a child wanted ice cream, that child had to finish all of his/hers dinner before they could have their ice cream. I sometime see myself giving rewards when a child does something great. I babysit, and when they want to do something like play the wii, I make them eat their dinner or do their homework before they can do so. Almost everyone does it.
