There has to be some kind of incentive given or punishment levied. Otherwise, poor habits are just passed on from one generation to the next.

Larry I agree with you, bad habits are easily passed from generation to gernerations, so are good habits.

Teaching kids not to litter starts with the parent. I have done it sucessfully to Dominican children. At times making them pick up whatever was improperly discarded.
