I meant “behavior”; and I should have written behavior, as in the actions one takes in response to any given circumstance.

I agree with your assessments, but you are indeed nitpicking semantics.

My sole point is that all any individual has is control over him or herself; and sometimes, even that is debatable.

I’ll choose my words more carefully, going forward.
