I bought him a Nintendo DS when he got good grades

but then he got kicked out of the accelerated class next semester so my hu*****and took it away. But you are right, games can be a very good motivation. We'll figure out a way by learning from you. You and your hu*****and seem to have good discipline tactics but my hu*****and yells or even hits our son and I won't let him do that so it's hard for us to be united towards him. I'm glad for you that you have two wonderful children
