(This is another Ask a gran question sent in by readers of the Radio Times.)

My daughter’s friend is being offered £100 per GCSE A-grade, and now my daughter says we should be offering her similar financial incentives. I refused to be blackmailed but my daughter can be very stubborn and she’s now saying she’s not going to work hard for her GCSEs. What should I do?

Can only agree with the rest. Don't do it. I might even go so far as to say that I was disappointed in her that she asked.
