How does Lanterns episode three depict John Stewart's engineered upbringing?

Lanterns episode three, "OutKast," shows the Guardians deliberately orchestrating John Stewart's hard upbringing to shape him into a fearless future Green Lantern, including his parents shooting apples off his head and leaving him to fend for himself in a rough part of Chicago [1]. Coverage also confirms this engineering extended into adulthood, with John joining the Marines specifically as part of the path the Guardians steered him towards, which ultimately led him to their door [2].
