A quarter without 'eights' — 100 rubles. A mother of many children told how much she pays her children for grades
What does such a system provide?
Maryia Zhalikhovskaya is a mother of four daughters, a blogger, a bank employee, and the author of a book on parenting. She believes that paying for grades helps prepare children for adult life. Smartpress writes about her system.
The bonus depends only on quarter and annual grades:
- A quarter without 'sevens' — 50 rubles;
- A quarter without 'eights' — 100 rubles;
- Only 'tens' — 200 rubles;
- Annual grades are paid additionally at the same rates.
Maryia believes that the bar for each child should be set higher than the grades they receive without special effort.
About 80% of her older daughters' pocket money comes from their studies. Maryia believes that this is more profitable than constantly paying for children's desires, and that children spend their own money more carefully.
There are no penalties for bad grades. But for a quarter 'six,' another household chore is added.
Awards are also provided in the family for olympiads and competitions.
The mother does not do homework with her children, as she considers studying to be their personal responsibility.
