âWhy would you not want to use money (e. g., quarters) as tokens in a token economy for juvenile delinquents in a residential treatment program?

Using money as tokens in a token economy for juvenile delinquents would be problematic mainly for two reasons:

1. The juvenile delinquents may steal the tokens from each other, making theft a problem in the place.

2. They might use the tokens to buy forbidden goods from outside the facility (things such as weapons or drugs).
