Tell your kid he can have all the ice cream he wants when he finishes his homework. He finishes it so he eats all the ice cream he wants. Negative consequence is a stomach ache later.

Immediate = happening right now
Reinforcement = encouraging something, sometimes through reward
delayed = happens later
negative = bad
consequences = the result of actions
Now, put all that together to figure out what the sentence as a whole means.
