I would think it would be effective either way.
My friend, Gena, gives her daughter, Joni, a list of things during summer (extra, in addition to her regular responsibilities) Gena wants done. She will have many different jobs paying Joni according to what is involved in the job. Joni can pick anything from the list. The jobs will be anywhere from $1.00 to $50.00. Joni has to complete the job to satisfaction before being paid. Gena said that Joni has never done a $50.00 job. I asked what would be a $50.00 job -- cleaning out the storm cellar. I guess something like that would be too overwhelming to a teenager. I told Gena that I would clean it out for $50.00.
