     In junior high school, one of my classmates, Ethan, was addicted to TV. This boy simply knew everything

     Then one day Ethan's mother made brim an offer in order to draw him back to his school subjects. She
promised that she would give him $200 if he could go a full month without watching any TV. None of us

biggest he could find.
     In recent years, hundreds of schools have carried out experiments with paying kids with each for showing
up or getting good grades. All school kids admire this trend. But it upsets adults. Teachers say that we are
rewarding kids for doing what they should be doing of their own will. Psychologists warn that money can
actually make kids perform worse by making the act of learning cheap. The debate has become a typical battle
over why our kids are not learning at the rate they should he despite decades of reforms and budget increases.
