Don’t Expect a Reward

Body
Virtue requires doing the right thing with no expectation of reward, and still doing it happily, but without becoming too proud of our good deeds. When we are raising our children, we often use punishment and reward to shape their behavior. But as they grow older, we want them to understand that some things are inherently good (or bad) and must be done (or avoided) regardless of whether one is rewarded (or punished) for doing them. If punishment and reward are overemphasized, we run the risk of raising children who are only good when they are being supervised.
