Parenting is hard. Like really hard. Between tantrums, negotiations, and trying to teach essential life skills, it often feels like an uphill battle. As parents, we want our kids to learn good habits, self-discipline, and fiscal responsibility. But getting them to cooperate can feel next to impossible some days.
That’s where Earnee comes in.
Earnee is an app designed by parents, for parents, to help reduce the daily friction of parenting. It uses a unique incentive system to motivate kids, teach goal setting, and make family life just a little smoother.
The Team Behind Earnee
Earnee was dreamed up by two sets of friends – Ely & Michal and Ari & Faigy – who were struggling through pandemic parenting in 2020. Tired of constant negotiations and battles with their kids, they decided to implement a reward system to help incentivize good behavior.
Using a fictional “family currency,” they set up a system of earning and losing based on completing chores and other responsibilities. What they discovered was life-changing. Suddenly, their kids were more cooperative. Getting through the day was easier. Their family dynamic improved.
At that moment, Earnee was born. They knew they were onto something big that could help families everywhere.
How Earnee Works
Earnee operates using an in-app currency that kids can earn and lose based on behaviors. Things like finishing homework, doing chores, and acting respectfully earn them money to “spend” on rewards like a pizza night or a trip to the movies. Slacking on responsibilities or misbehaving leads to fines and losing their hard-earned riches.
This system teaches essential life skills like:
– Goal setting
– Delayed gratification
– Responsibility
– Self-discipline
Research shows that mastering these skills early leads to better outcomes later in life – higher SAT scores, less substance abuse, and more.
On top of rewarding good behavior, the Earnee app provides stability and consistency with parenting. No more trying to come up with appropriate prizes and punishments on the fly. All rewards and consequences are already built into the system.
This reduces negotiations, arguments, and frustration for both parents and kids. It also helps cement positive habits in kids for the long run.
Why Earnee Just Works
What makes Earnee so effective is how it caters to both parents and children.
Kids love earning prizes, rewards, and extra screen time. The Earnee currency gives them motivation to complete daily responsibilities without complaint. It speaks their language – instant, tangible gratification.
Meanwhile, parents want to teach core values and life skills. Earnee builds consistency and self-discipline through habitual, goal-oriented thinking. Kids learn how small actions today reap bigger rewards tomorrow.
Ultimately, Earnee bridges the parent-child divide. It turns parenting from a struggle into a cooperative, rewarding experience for the whole family.
