One time my 8-year-old son won $2 from his grandpa for a tackle he made at the football field. When he got home, he took off his football equipment and went to play. He left the $2 on the floor. I told him to take his money up to his room. He said okay, kept on playing and forgot. I reminded him 10 minutes later, and he still didn’t do it right away and forgot again. I reminded him a third time and told him that if he had to be reminded again, he would lose the money. Ten minutes later, he lost the money. I was angry and he cried about the money he wasn’t getting back.
