Answer:

The correct answer is D) Delay of punishment

Step-by-step explanation:

Parents need to teach children, when they have a wrong behavior, not to repeat it. When time difference between the action or bad behavior and the punisment is too long, the childre aren't be able to connect this two experiences. If parents decide to do that, with this action they don't learn how to make a better choice in the future regarding their actions .
