WTF do you think the rest of us plebeians have been doing for 18 years? Do you think we’ve been compromising on home choices, car choices, travel choices, and entertainment choices because we like feeling, as you say, “pinched”? Or do you think it’s because normal parents aren’t blissfully entitled and don’t expect the FA Fairy Godmother to majickally make up for two decades of selfishness?

JFC. Take several seats until you can tell kid that you screwed them over, and that THEY will experience the consequences of YOUR piss-poor choices. [/quote]
