Should Kids Get Cash For Good Grades? [Video/Poll]

Today Show
I was watching this segment on the “Today Show” the other day and a professor was talking about paying kids for good grades. He gave the example of someone running a school where kids come from tough backgrounds and they aren’t reading or motivated.

He said let’s say administrators decided to give cash incentives for good grades. The idea was to pay $2 every time a child read a book and he used third graders as an example. Is this is a good idea? Should schools pay kids for good grades? Check out the video and take the poll after the jump.
