Thanks for adding "Period!" at the end of your paragraph. Unfortunately - you went against your beliefs and gave money to your daughter when she did no work.

As Jason posted - it would have been a better idea if you would have given Her a copy of your home study course and guide her make money using that idea.

You could have even documented the idea and what your daughter does and used it as a case study to sell more copies of your course in the future.

There are no downsides with that idea and a valuable lesson for your daughter.

Instead, by discounting - you potentially made a few people who paid more for your product angry / dis-satisfied and got people questioning your intent on 2 business forums that you frequent. Very relevant downsides imo.
