      Avoid the hidden trap of rewards and raise confident, self-motivated kids with revolutionary, science-based parenting strategies from international sensation Dr. Özgür Bolat—featuring a foreword by Nobel Laureate Aziz Sancar.Every loving parent uses rewards—gold stars, treats, praise, privileges—believing they’re nurturing their child’s motivation and self-esteem. But what if seven decades of scientific research reveal we’re doing the exact opposite? What if the rewards we depend on are creating power struggles, screen dependence, and children who act only when there is something to gain?Drawing on groundbreaking research and real-life cases, The Reward Trap explores the hidden psychological cost of rewards and how parents can avoid the pitfalls of external validation on the road to internal motivation. With expert strategies from award-winning researcher Dr. Özgür Bolat—proven to work at home, not just in a lab—this is the connection-based alternative you've been looking for.Free from the hidden trap of rewards, you will raise children whotake initiative—from homework to daily responsibilities—without being asked, reminded, or pressured;stay engaged and persist through challenges, even when there’s no reward or recognition; andmake good choices because they believe in them, not because they’re told to.No more battles over motivation. No more anxiety about whether you’re doing enough. Just genuine connection and a confident, emotionally secure child who is motivated from within. It’s the kind of inner happiness no reward can buy.
