Topic to discuss amongst yourselves...

Behaviorism:

For or against?

I am unsure how I feel about it. While the benefits of positive rewards cannot be denied, but some argue that the benefits are not long lasting? Technically positive supportive praise falls under the behaviorism umbrella, and I am 100% support of praising both children and adults.

So I guess I well put my one foot in the behaviorism circle but I am leaving that other foot out there so I can change my mind in the right situation.
