Do kids get addicted to constant positive feedback?
No. We have found that when it is authentic, heartfelt, and specific children begin to internalize these successes as their own and essentially download them as personal success. They begin to change what was once a negative portfolio filled with inability, disappointment and anger, and shift toward a personal portfolio that is filled with their personal experience of taking responsibility, doing the right things, helping others, etc. They create a reality based on their own personal power. Eventually, they begin to shift from needing your feedback, to trusting in their own innate abilities and wisdom.
