My Daughter school just called me

to tell me that they had Kai in her office because she just earned 10 dragon tickets. They really make a big deal of acheivements apparently. They even put her on the phone with me. It was very cool.

 

what is a dragon ticket?

 

yeah...

What's a dragon ticket?

 

It's like a merit point. Her school mascot is a dragon.

 

What does this mean?

 

Yeah, what's a dragon ticket? I want one!

My parents were only ever called when I was being naughty.. and that was quite a lot. Ooops...

 

I have the same question

 

So what did Kai do to get so many tickets? She sounds like such a great kid.

 

That's really cool! My kids' old grade school used to do something called "caught being good". I really liked the program because it encouraged good behavior.

It's great to hear from the school for something like that, and it makes the kid feel GREAT!

 

So's she's getting punished for it?

 

She is a great kid. She has had various minor acheivements. The latest ticket was given her for good behaviour.

 

Yeay for Kai!!

 

I guess she doesn't take after her mom at all!

 

Haha, actually her and her mom are the spittin image of eachother. They are both amazing.
It's joey takes after me more. She is a lil terror but such a huge love. lil cuddle bug, that one.

 

positive reinforcement is the best.

what do the tickets get her?

 

Her own thread on hipforums apparently.

Tell her I said congratulations

 

And her 15 minutes of fame. I actually forget what the tangible is but KC knows. I used to know but cant remember

 

did you tell her yet?

 

When the school called me they had her in the office with them and let her talk to me. It was very cool. She was soo excited.
Really a proud moment for ol' pa.

 

Awww, that is so cute...Congrats to Kai! And to you guys of course, after all you are the parents..

But that is awesome though..
