Answer:

If the mother fails to condition the child the child will be spoiled and will not be able to make good decisions later on in life. Operant Conditioning should be done. Thus, the child should be given toys as rewards for something good such as high grades at school. While on the latter, a punishment should be provided if the child does something that is not right
