I am writing a paper on using positive reinforcement instead of traditional parenting techniques. This is for an English class, I am in the first stages of writing this paper and I am in need of knowing some history on the subject. I have looked in my psychology text book and online and I am not finding what I need. I realize this is a form of operant conditioning, so do I date back to B.F. Skinner's research? Is there nothing more up-to-date?

Thanks in advance for all of your input.

Reason I ask, I usually want to use this word to describe myself but often feel like I am not worthy. What traits or deeds do you think one must possess to use the word in self-description?

This may be the topic I select for my paper. I need to hear both pros and cons.

The idea is that if drugs were legal and taxed, rehab facilities would be state ran and offer real help, and also it would cut out some of the crime related to illegal drug sales.

I'm not asking whether you think it will ever come to be.

Thanks in advance.

It's a girl...sounds like Joan Jett, the lyrics in my head are

"...where we can be alone...yea babe,...___ makes me move it on"

Is it part of "I love Rock 'n Roll"?

Thanks.

For myself, I really wanted to chunk a pen at the back of this annoying woman's head...she drives me to tears of madness!
