Really? What’s a better punishment? We complain about mass incarceration in the abstract but want to keep everyone in prison forever in the concrete.

Fast, relatively inexpensive food made with natural ingredients in a standardized but customizable way in locations close to colleges and major attractions in nearly every city and village in America.

The thing is if you let him make that choice and handle it well he will come back to you. Forcing him will only breed resentment and have longer-term implications.

As a Native who now lives Not In New York, I can safely say that the only real difference in values between NYC and literally everywhere else is that they have true respect for the bagel.

This. This a million times. “Freeze response” is legitimate and completely ignored, sometimes undermined, by society.
