Good to hear your lad is so helpful and hope he continues to support his mum this way. Definitely a small reward is on the cards, supporting positive behaviour is the way to go. Long may he continue to be this way. Liz

He obviously is prepared to work to get a little extra reward, so he will value his toy when he manages to buy it. You've got some great children, Dawn, Gwyn

Ladies this is the first time he has been like this so is a bolt from the blue. This is a lad who has no concentration or memory and struggles at school and has been a nightmare at home so this has just gobsmacked me today. He has even let tiddler in his room while hes not there to watch a video. May even go and get him the toy he wants when he is at school tomorrow as a thank you.
