  When I was a Sixlet sixth grader, I HATEHATEHATED math- still do- buy me familia paid me to do extra (easy) math work in a workbook.. I think this was a bad practice, because it gave me money to create cavities, and forced me to bottle up my hatred of math until explosions over my (actual) homework. I think bribery shouldn't be thrown around,it should be used when necessary. Kids need to understand why they do homework, chores, and why they partake in family life. For the big issues, though, bribery isn't such a problem, because those are rarer.
