Should I get my daughter a gift for earring straight A'S all year?

On one hand, kids should learn that working hard doesn't always result in immediate material rewards. Especially since she is young; a graduation present for 5th grade isn't necessary. On the other hand, it is nice to recognize when your children consistently work hard. When I was younger, my mom often gave me a small present at the end of the school year when I worked hard and did well. If you decide to give her a present, I wouldn't go too big -- just a small but nice token to reward her. If giving her a gift doesn't feel like the right thing to do, make sure she knows you appreciate her hard work. Tell her you're proud of her and maybe take her to her favorite restaurant, or make her favorite meal at home.

If you want to, sure. But the reward for working hard really is the good grades. Rewarding her for everything isn't always good because it teaches her that she needs to receive a gift any time she does something. You could give her something small or praise her verbally. Personally, I'm always a fan of intrinsic motivation and learning the value of accomplishments without being rewarded outside of that.

In my home it was our duty to do the best we could in school. Our parents loved us, but we understood they needed to work hard to give us our education along with all else we had, so in return we could not waste our educational opportunity. If you think your daughter would benefit from a gift then go ahead. Just examine your belief system and go from there.

Of course! She sounds like a jewel. Let her know how much you appreciate her. You told us-tell her and give her a bigger hamster cage. Come on, mom. Some parents do it for the most undeserving kids. Children who fail, are behavior problems have $100 shoes/nail salon nails, braided hair, four wheelers...etc. Give her the hamster cage for good ness sake!

Yes. Give her a gift. She works hard and is responsible. She has earned it.

I would. Encouraging a kid to do great and continue excellence is always great. Just only do it for true greatness

Go ahead and get her a bigger cage for her hamster. Or whatever she would like.

Sure why not? Rewards for good stuff, punishment for bad stuff.

Which she has a phone, And I pay for it.
