It sounds like you never heard of Pavlov and his dog.
Actually, if you read my later posts in this thread you will see clearly that I have.
That is, I explicitly say that it's incumbent on everyone to entrain the people in their life. I explicitly endorse punishing bad behavior (because if you reward it, you get more bad behavior), and implicitly say that good beavior should be rewarded (to get more of it).
That's pavlovian to an extent, I think. And in any case, my personal conduct does more to entrain the people in my life than even the most pervasive pop culture depictions.
If they don't, then those people are jettisoned from my life. "Good luck out there!"
