Annie had just begun school. Her parents were tired of the methods they were using to correct her behavior, including scolding (训斥), and taking away privileges (特权). Annie still needed to be scolded for her bad behavior, but her parents felt the good things she did needed to be recognized.

For every bad behavior you notice, find four good behaviors or reasons to praise. It is a good way to remember to look for good behavior.
