Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Have your kids ever cleaned their room, just to avoid your nagging? This is a perfect example of negative reinforcement.

Detailed explanation-2: -At dinner time, a child pouts and refuses to eat her vegetables for dinner. Her parents quickly take the offending veggies away. Since the behavior (pouting) led to the removal of the aversive stimulus (the veggies), this is an example of negative reinforcement.

Detailed explanation-3: -Nagging Your Employees Constantly being reminded to be more productive, often seen as nagging or badgering by employees, is a negative reinforcement technique. It may be used intentionally or unintentionally, but it creates a negative condition in which the employees are subjected to an unpleasant situation.
