[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is it that these 'Golden Children' are often people who don't do well in life as adults, e.g. dropping out of education, drink, drugs, debts, you name it? Why did their parents favor them?[/quote] In my home growing up the Golden have them bragging rights and had the strengths they valued. There really wasn't enough emphasis on things like being kind, respectful to all even those who can do nothing for you, having integrity, etc. So she continued to be brag-worthy with her career, but the other stuff got her into a lot of trouble. She briefly became the scapegoat when her superior attitude and haughtiness caused her enough trouble that she was fired. She has since bounced back and got her Golden crown back.[/quote]
