    That is a good question. I don’t think any of those motivated me as a kid. I think I just plain wanted to be “right”! And I still do.

    Bailey said the first 2. He loves his teacher and he wouldn’t want to ever disappoint us. So he does it for 2 reasons I guess.

    Dylan says he wants a prize. He’s only 4 though so this question is a little old for him.
