[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does super coddled = rich? If so, they will be fine. Intergenerational wealth does wonders, even if you don’t work particularly hard.[/quote]

Not really.  It depends on how and why they are coddled.   My older daughter’s friend has a mother who is over the top.  She was obsessed with her daughter being popular.   She became friends with me because she wanted to her daughter to be friends with mine.  I didn’t mind because she would help out with my daughter.

This mother did as much of her daughter’s work as possible.   She went to an expensive college, got kicked out and is now addicted to drugs.   Beautiful girl, so funny.  Her mother was too involved, her daughter did nothing for herself.  Her father traveled a lot, makes seven figures (his salary is public) and is the nicest guy.   He left his wife and got remarried. He saw the damage his wife did. (   Sorry for rambling writing)

I know a guy who was his parents’ life. He also did well academically and professionally although he seems to currently hate his job. My friend married him and fell for his good looks, good family, ivy degrees and what seemed to be the total package. He was very selfish and treated my friend like a maid despite her education and career success. They are now getting divorced.[/quote]
