How to Change a Child's Poor Attitude

If your child is misbehaving, this tactic can be very effective to improve attitude and behavior.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

1. Buy a poster board and set up a "sticker chart" by making multiple columns for placing stickers.

2. Give your child stickers for good behavior, setting up a goal of a certain number of stickers to equal a reward.

3. Give your child the designated reward when they reach the desired number of stickers.

4. Repeat for a new reward.
