Some of this may seem like I’m insensitive. I don’t think this can be successful overall without NV being able to fend for himself. Some call this “tough love.” I see it as an opportunity to teach NV ‘life skills’ even at age 33.

Grady,
Hardly insensitive.
More like good parenting to me.
Like you say, NV needs to stand on his own. Having someone to help him stay the course and coach him in the correct direction is what he needs and what you seem to be offering. you can do not more, nor much better. At all ages, we need the coaching sometimes.
If he is thinking prison is a viable alternative, he clearly still has some learning to do.
I am hoping for the best for both you and NV.
