thanks for answering these queries Thenji! I appreciate you didn't make an issue out if it! keep reading out stories to him where the same message is implied . when he listens to u and practice honesty, praise him. u could ask him to earn money by making points and then he can buy anything he wants. say for instance fix some amount for behaving nicely , following routine, helping you with chores , getting good grades. by the end of week whatever money is collected he can spend it on one thing of his choice and rest can be saved for later use. by doing this he will value money and learn to work hard. be lenient otherwise he will loose interest in finishing this challenge. at home make sure everyone follows same rules and there is same punishment for one and all. hope this helps!
