I predict his kids will be voting Republican as soon as they get the chance:
You click off family’s electricity and make them go to bed at nine every night because it’s too dark to do anything else. You ban them from the elevator so they have to walk up and down nine flights of stairs. You take away their fridge so they can’t keep more than a day or two of food around the house.
All this and then they turn around and say it’s life as usual?
Some happier medium is surely possible.
