I see the same thing in my classroom. Kids are super competitive. I don't even offer a prize and they are greedy for attention or recognition or just to win. I don't like it but without that motivator the kids would be more interested in what was on the lunch menu than what they are learning. The use of greed definitely needs professional supervision. Maybe I willl change my contest to "Generous Yellow Bird Challenge".

Perhaps "Professionally Monitored Greedy Yellow Bird Challenged"? Anyone capable of feeling or detecting greed would qualify to be a monitor. Of course, those people that can't would have to be monitored too.
Lust and gluttony are easy to spot, but can you recognize which one is greed?
