Free Behavior Charts - What's the Point?

Free behavior charts can be a real lifesaver.  When used in a structured way as a part of an overall behavior modification program, they can keep a child focused on new behaviors and rewarded, obviously, for doing so.

Kids learning to utilize a learning tool such as behavior charts in this way can learn how to change their own behavior over time, which is a fun thing to watch and one of the most basic goals of parenting; teaching personal responsibility.

Chore charts in general are a powerful parenting tool that usually is misunderstood and misused, too. Family chore charts of any kind don't do anything on their own. They must always be customized to fit a child and a family's situation for maximum effectiveness.
