I was not mature at 21. Maybe I wasn't a kid, but I certainly didn't act like an adult.

> By 21 years old I think you're no longer a "kid".
Neurological development continues well into your twenties. I don't know what it means to be a 'kid', but someone in college seems like kid could still be reasonable depending on context.

Sure, but I don’t think this publication was thinking about that. Call me jaded, but I feel like they were more thinking “hey can we call him a kid to get more page impressions?”

I'm nearly 40.. I have a 2 year old and a 9 month old. I still feel like I'm a kid sometimes. I def. make stupid decisions. But to a 16 year old I'll always be old, and 80's music is now classic rock and oldies....

Why criminal terms? He did nothing wrong, he decided to serve a market the abandoned and it is not a crime for him charging more than Krispy Kreme does due to his value add (Transportation).
yes but his use of social media, forced Krispy Kreme to react publicly
In any case it seems like he needed the money to pay for college so he ran a side hustle. The only thing that's remarkable here is, when found out, he used social media to turn it into a PR issue which in turn forced Krispy Kreme to deal with it on PR terms rather than legal ones.
