Answer to Question 1

However, the process you describe should include the following: Hold a family meeting to discuss how contracts work. Next, ask family members to identify task he/she can perform within the contract and tasks he/she already performs in the home. Next, fill out a list of behaviors that could be included in the contract. Next, fill out a list of rewards people would like to earn. Finally, write the contract, and be sure to include all of the necessary components.
