Instead of repeatedly writing "I will make better choices" all the way down the page, one kid actually made a better choice by crossing the Ts and dotting the Is all the way to the end of the page once he realized that was the smart thing to do.

And the old adage remains true: Work smarter, not harder.

Way to go, kid!
