Hui huis parents noticed that she loved to
read, hence they would buy her books to

school zone. As a result, you get pulled
over by a police officer and receive a
ticket.
Negative punishment
Observational Learning
Hui Huis behaviour will affect her social communication skill,
through observational learning where Hui Hui can learn from what
she see,
Teachers and parents should demonstrate to her how to
communicate with others by using simple and short dialogue in
conversation to keep her from being repetitive and wordy; or
demonstrate how she can initiate and maintain conversation with
others.
Examples of dialogue : "Tom, you shouldn't be so rude to people,
you might hurt their feelings and they might depressed. / "Tom,
don't be so rude to people".
