It is a libel to suggest that children need rewards for attending to tasks, apart from intrinsic interest and satisfaction.

Image
No man is a good citizen, a good neighbor, a good friend, or a good man just because he obeys the law. The intrinsic worth is determined mainly by the intrinsic make-up.
