[quote=Anonymous]I have noticed that kids who have a really easy life where everything is kind of handed to them/know that college is paid for and that there is always a cushion to fall back on/ often lack a fire to be successful or have a strong work ethic. I grew up surround by the children of first generation immigrant whose parents sacrificed everything for the kids to have a better life. I'm not saying these friends ended up extremely happy but they are mostly well to do and successful in high level careers. The fire and pressure for their success were ever present. I think helping your kids find a good balance as a previous poster suggested is key. Don't make the cushion too soft.[/quote]
