I work at a wholefoods and when they wanted to implement the 5 step animal welfare program with chickens, the 3 big chicken companies banded together and said "nope, not gona happen." Wholefoods told one of them they would no longer do any business with them and that scared the other two enough to comply. It IS the responsibility of the big markets to try to change the industry otherwise our groceries will end up just like the government. The people want it to change but don't see how to effect that change.

Maybe you have or haven't heard about Global Animal Partnership

just a note on Stephenson; he has an amazing way with language. Reading Quicksilver, it's never very exciting but his language is so fun and beautiful, I don't really care. Who would have thought that reading about a guy talking about his adventures learning about math with Isac Newton would be so enjoyable.

This is a very standard thing with phone apps though. It surprised me the first time I read it, but it's just standard for the reasons he stated.

Okay, I honestly write off all UFO stuff as blanket "bullshit crazy shit until proven real" but, my perspective on your question is this: up tell 1970's our technology was pretty not advanced. There was a lot of dead-space for surveillance. If I were an ET or someone with a super advanced test-craft I might chance flying it over one of the major powers because their tracking was limited.

Sense then, things have grown. Granted our governments would likely hide it from us now but the idea that something could traverse with out being detected is unlikely.

Keep in mind, sometimes no matter what life you create at home, he may be experiencing a different one at school. I got into a lot of trouble in school in my early years because I would get picked on, and when I engaged certain teachers I was punished. I eventually got angry and just started solving my problems myself. So, I'd get in fights and if I didn't agree with the teachers, I'd ignore them. Through experience with a few bad apples I developed those bad habits. I presumed all teachers were the same.

Eventually I realized that if I solved my problems with anger and violence, then I was viewed as an angry violent person. Even though I felt justified in my response I was not in control of how others chose to perceive me beyond choosing my behavior. If I wanted to be viewed differently, which I did, I had to start solving my problems in different ways. I was smart enough to, so it was time to put down the fists and use my words.

from pre-kindergarten to 4th grade I was a very angry child getting in fights on a weekly basis. After 4th grade I never threw a punch again, besides sparring.

What I'm saying is, there is a cause to his actions. Figuring out why he makes the choices is key. Figuring out his motivators, what drives his decision making process, is the best route to changing his behavior. If he sees there's a better path to achieving the outcome he wants, he will change.
