Chapter 5: Kids with Bribes

While reading chapter 5, I started to compare it to how kids only do things if they are going to get something out of it in the long run. On page 101, it talks about how people are going to have to make up new lies to keep things interesting or else people aren’t going to want to keep doing things. This made me think of young children. For instance, if a child was told to clean their room, they would not want to do that. On the other hand, if they were offered to get ice cream after they cleaned, they would just do it for the ice cream. If there is a good bribe involved, people will always do what they are told.
