Equality Golbat: A rewards-only approach can still be abusive.

Reward actions that should be rewarded. Positive reinforcement helps kids remember things that can help them in the future. It’s important to help your kids and get their opinion if they have trouble doing some things. 

Reward your kid for doing something good for someone else without being asked, for instance. Help your kid and reward them for doing something that might not be the easiest thing for them to do. Why reward your kids if you have to help them do something? Because it shows you understand that they’re putting in a lot of effort to do the thing, even with your help.

If you’re rewarding acceptance of punishment, pain, degradation, helplessness, or withholding vital necessities and putting them under the guise of rewards, that is abusive.
