"When your son engages in an inappropriate behavior, we will temporarily take away something from him that he enjoys so that he will be less likely to behave that way again."

Correct Answer: When your son engages in an inappropriate behavior, we will temporarily take away something from him that he enjoys so that he will be less likely to behave that way again. This accurately describes the behavior without using words that may be unfamiliar such as ABA jargon such as the word, stimuli. Negative punishment does not involve making the child do something he does not enjoy and does not involve giving him things he enjoys.*##**##*
