    That’s a false comparison. Mailing a note that says “we got a complaint, mow the grass so I don’t have to fine you” gives the same opportunity for grace and treats people like adults while also removing the face to face confrontation.

      If I have to mail you something to tell you to mow your lawn out of fear you might pull a gun on me, I’m not treating you like an adult.

      People should be able to talk to each other.
