Kids Make Us Proud

[JetBoatRich]

Give kids something to look forward to and they con succeed. My son is a good kid, but was having trouble at school, usually stuff talking in class, didn't like all the assignments, etc. Private schools are not always easy and can be a little more demanding on kids, but can be good for them.
Well I told him he does good in school he gets a MotorCycle, if he continues he can even ride it.
It really seemed to work, was I surprised last night when I got home from work. He received 4 awards from school 2 merit awards, MOST IMPROVED STUDENT and Student of the Month with the bumper sticker to back it up.
For those who know me personally, probably know my son and he is a good kid. He checks out these post from time to time so:
CONGRATULATIONS LITTLE JETBOATRICH

It does feel good, he received a coupon for two different pizza places in town. Guess he wants pizza for dinner tonight wink

I hold grades over this guy's head so he can continue to race BMX.
If he wants to go drag boat riding he has to help wrench. This does not require anything. He is more than willing to help.

Congrats Little JetBoatRich!!! Very cool.
It worked for me many years ago too, worked for my son who's now 20 and luckily my daughter doesn't need the incentive but has all the toys anyhow

Thanks for all the comments, I will share them with Little Rich when I get home.
Any of you that will be at the lake Sunday, he will be glad to see you.
