The Importance of Praise in CBT

The people please approach can arise if there's a history of conflict and so you're trying to avoid conflict. On the other hand, it could be more of a conflict avoidance type and like when you do a good job is crisis averted. I think in general CBT sees praise as manipulative. You have to be very careful in praising others because it can be a way you almost get the other person addicted to pleasing you. It's an interesting topic, but I'm not sure you wanted to go that direction.
