I'm not saying you should only give out carrots, either. I just think assuming the responsibility lies on the kid to behave correctly doesn't make sense.

What are you trying to assert is false about this viewpoint? Specific performance is actually a kind of legal remedy and it can in fact be ordered by a court. It might be one of the last tools in a judge's toolbox, but I don't thi

You appear to have a fundamental misunderstanding of the 2FA in this case. TOTP-based 2FA is available for PyPI, for which any number of FOSS freely-runnable clients are available. See also https://pypi.org/help/#totp
