When you finish some chores at home, will your parents give you a reward(奖励)? It is common for parents to do that. But some people do not think it is a good idea.
One of them is Susie Walton, a middle school teacher. She believes if kids get rewards, they will think that housework is not worth(值得)doing if they don't get something in return. Kids won't sweep the floor if they see it is dirty. But they will if their parents reward them for it. Besides, Walton also thinks a home is a living place for everyone in the family. It's important for kids to see that we all should play our part in keeping our homes clean.
Other people don't think so. They believe that rewards encourage kids to do more chores. Rewarding also teaches them real - world lessons. They can learn that we need to work to make money.
Now, there are also mobile phone apps like ChoreMonster. With the app, kids get points after doing chores. After getting some points, they can do something they like. For example, parents will allow them to play video games for half an hour if they get 80 points.
So each side seems to have its reasons. Whether you give children rewards depends on your own ideas. Maybe you have better ways to work out this problem.
