Recommended: Cause and effect of video game addiction

Sam 16 years old, he is a 10th grade student. As a teenage boy who love all about cars and video games. Sam is always thinking about when he will have a driver license. Sam never thinks about his education or even his greed. Sam always wastes his time playing video and watching race cars more than studying his homework. I will try to persuade the teenage boy to spend less time playing video games and focus more on school and work without incurring lasting resentment by four different ways. First of all, I will use positive reinforcement to change his behavior. I start to talk to Sam about how education is important. Education helps us build opinions and has points of view on things in life. Also, how education is the process of gaining …show more content…

Sam starts to spend more time studying to avoid cutting the grass. Now every time Sam wants to escape cutting the grass; he will spend more time studying.

positive punishment, Sam forget to study for the math test, so the day of the math test he can 't answers any math problem,and he has failed in the math test. I give him a double worksheet to improve his math grade. Sam has learned every time he 's not studying for the test I will double his work. Negative punishment, Sam always waste his time playing video games, and forget to finish his school work, so he get bad grades. Because Sam had a bad grade on the most of his assignment, I took away his video games and he is not allowed to use my car for two weeks. I prefer that positive reinforcement style to manage and change Sam 's behavior. Because teenager needs someone who can explain to them what is good and bad for their life. A teenager needs parents who are strict and warm; parents demand mature behavior, but use reason rather than force in disciplining. I believe that once teenager feels how their parents do care about them, they will change their behavior automatically from bad to good

    I am tired of living in total fear that my school, town, or any other public place will be the new breaking news of a shooting. No person right in the head will go around shooting up a school or anywhere else because they were angry at the people there. If we want to actually do something other than cry we need to know the first step in how these things happen. 1)person makes plan 2)person buys gun 3)peruses plan. We may no be able to stop a person thought process but we can sure as heck change how someone messed up enough to kill people to buy a gun. There is no reason for those type of people to be aloud to. How am I supposed to go to school and leave my house without thinking "wow, this could be it". Today I walked out of school to see police

  • Persuasive Speech On School Shootings

    This was a very informative article. I was unaware of all the deaths in result of gun violence. I didn’t realize that people who worked for the government or who was in congress were often targets. In order to fully get rid of gun violence in schools, each and every school should have metal detectors that can detect weapons and always have security guards on duty. By doing this, parents are more comfortable with sending their students off to school. Taking this step in every school around the world would definitely cost lots of money but it will honestly be worth it. After all the school shooting we’ve heard about, we’d definitely be saving plenty of lives just in case an incident does happen. I went to highschool in a rough neighborhood and

  • Should Children Behaved When Children Misbehave?

    1305 Words  | 3 Pages

    (Miltenberger, 2012) Spanking a child for misbehaving, or grounding a child is an example of a punishment. The reason people do this is because the child begins to associate being punished with the negative behavior. The child will not like the punishment and will want to avoid it in the future, so the child will stop misbehaving in that manner. I would explain to the parents that there are ways that you can punish a child who has misbehaved without the use of excessive punishments.

  • Persuasive Speech On The First Amendment

    1261 Words  | 3 Pages

    Unlike many other countries America has freedom of speech. Even in other countries in Europe people are not allowed to use “hate speech” and they can be sent to prison for it. Fortunately, the American constitution defends people’s freedom of speech, no matter how controversial it is. Political correctness diminishes people’s free speech. It may not be direct but even indirectly the knowledge that someone might have adverse consequences; such as losing a job as a result of their speech is unacceptable. People have the right to state their opinions without others infringing on them, it was the principle in which America was founded. The first amendment of the constitution of the United States declares that: “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.” (US Const. amend. I, sec. i). While the first amendment only affects congress’s control over free speech, it indicates that free speech is a right that people must have. Some people are of the opinion that if something can be found offensive

The structured discipline of both parents and teachers help the child to appreciate that good behaviour is much more beneficial than bad behaviour but without this structure in one or both of these settings, could lead to the child not understanding, leading to it being much more difficult to correct behaviour that isn't wanted without resorting to drastic measures of physical or psychological punishment that would do more harm than good. Further research into helping the children in these sort of circumstances would be much more beneficial to the topic of child behaviour and punishment.

    Summer has come to an end and school back in full swing. One is ready to crush the challenges facing a 5th grader. The last bell for recess sounds. Young boys race outside to enjoy the sun’s warmth. Name calling and horse-playing around immediately begins as they plan their weekend fun. Challenging each other to execute silly acts or daring one another to flirt with the girls across the playground. One yells out if you don’t jump from the top you are a sissy. Then one hears ask Julie out first. Recess is almost over when another one yells out he won’t…he’s a gay sissy. Silence has now blanketed the playground and one could hear a pin drop. Saved by the bell it was time to line up and head back to class. The final bell of the day

    .... I feel that in most cases, once a student has been punished through negative reinforcement for doing wrong, the student will attempt to correct such behavior in the future to avoid punishment. In addition, positive reinforcement should be given for those students who are the majority and behave, as well as for the students who are occasional troublemakers because positive reinforcement helps show what is correct behavior in response to bad behavior.

    My fundamental beliefs are that adults and children should have respect for one another treating people as individuals. I believe that we should model a sense of understanding, encouragement, trust, teamwork, and perseverance in all who we come in contact with. I believe that everyone has should have the opportunity to learn in a environment that is positive and encouraging. Recognizing my fundamental beliefs I know that in the Skinner-Rogers’ dichotomy that I fall on the Rogerian side of the scale. My beliefs are consistent with that of Rogers. I am also in favor of referent power and I would like to work with the students as an interactionalist. With all of these frameworks in mind I looked at a program that most fit my beliefs and frameworks. I believe that I can initiate the program of Glasser and use it effectively in my teaching situation. Many schools and programs regularly go through a process whereby they attempt to develop a new philosophical base and a different practical approach to working with students. Jones (1987) estimated that 80% of disruptive behavior is talking to each other, 15% out of seat, the remaining 5% is spent on note passing, playing with pencils or objects. The cost of student failure is absorbed. If we are losing 30 to 50% of our time keeping on task as a result of small disruptions, I would say to you that no other problem costs you 30 to 50% of your entire school budget. In keeping this in mind, I would propose that our middle school take a look at a program developed by Dr. William Glasser, M.D. His model is consistent with my own beliefs and would fulfill the vision that our school has developed. Integrated in Dr. Glasser’s model are Choice Theory (previously termed Control Theory), Reality Therapy, and the Quality School. Choice Therapy is an explanation of behavior, Reality Therapy is a process allowing Choice Therapy principles to be operationalized, and the Quality Schools represent the application of Choice Theory and Reality Therapy ideas in Education. William Glasser’s model involves the initiation of what he calls quality schools. Glasser (1992) contends that we must offer students an education that they can see will satisfy both their immediate and future needs. Students can only learn if they view their schools as a place that is at least potentially need satisfying. If students do not perceive what we are offer...

  • The Pros And Cons Of Permissive Parenting

    1032 Words  | 3 Pages

    However, this is incorrect. Natural and logical consequences can be more effective than lectures and other kinds of punishment[5]. A natural consequence would be this; if a child plays with their toys roughly, and smashes one, then they no longer have that toy. Provided the child is not too young to understand what happened and can use logic, they will understand that playing roughly with toys will result in not having the toy anymore. Logical consequences are when a parent creates a punishment to an action which attempts to mimic a natural consequence[5]. If a child is playing with their parent’s phone roughly, letting them smash it is not a good way to teach them a lesson. In this case, a logical consequence would be to take the phone, and explain that if they continue to act this way, they might break the phone. This acts the same way as a natural consequence[1], the child learns that playing roughly with an item results in them not being able to use the phone anymore. An authoritarian parent would have a different response to the above situations, they would give the child a lecture. In both cases, the child would likely cease to play roughly, but the child of the authoritarian parent would only stop because they fear another lecture. The child of the permissive parent would stop because they understand the consequences of their
