💡 Tips

Compliments are the only form of recognition that doesn't touch the balance — they don't assign or deduct points or symbolic money.
Both adult and child can send compliments — the child can only do it if their individual login is activated.
Points and money in ParensUP are symbolic — compliments are just a form of recognition and communication within the family.
