Answer 2

Answer:

This is consistent with research showing that when adults give small rewards for behaviors that are not rewarding, children are less likely to perform these activities.

Explanation:

Children always like to be encouraged to do something. Especially when the stimulus has the objective of making them practice a boring and not fun task.

Household chores are boring and no fun, so children can avoid them whenever necessary. For this reason, many adults often reward children when they perform a domestic chore. This reward is intended to stimulate the child, but it can have a completely opposite effect when the child does not feel that he has had a fair reward. This is because when adults give small rewards for behaviors that are not rewarding, children are less likely to perform these activities.
