Responsibility

"According to research, children who were asked to be 'helpers' were significantly more responsive to requests than those who simply asked to 'help.' In other words, asking children, 'Will you be a helper and clean up this room?' is more motivating to them than being told 'Help clean up the room.' Why? Children want to be viewed as helpers — it's an appealing idea nurtures their sense of independence and responsibility." PBS KIDS-Character Education-Responsibility
