After discussing whether it was possible for Cooper and Chris to have separate presentations, Cooper focused on the value of making the right choices, whether you are at school or at home.
Cooper questioned the class when it was observed that some of his classmates did not have to follow house rules like he does. A peer asked, "what is your consequence for breaking the rules?" Cooper explained when he makes an unsafe or disrespectful choice he earns a consequence that he does not enjoy. This was followed by a lively discussion on punishment and reward. The class agreed, getting sent to your room is the best punishment because everyone always just plays with their toys and pretends to be sad when mom or dad walks in!! One child even noted, "its not even really a consequence, it doesn't make me want to follow the rules more." Hmmmm.
