[quote=Anonymous]We have neighbors who are both double MIT grads, wealthy and very successful. Their two children are also Ivy grads who lived at home until 32 and 34 and continue to be in entry level jobs. It's a combination of a few things from what i can tell. First, the kids were catered to and infantilized their whole life. All the planning, organization, tutoring done by a tiger mom. Secondly, by the time they finished college they were burned out by the parental pressure. The youngest has developed severe anxiety. Thirdly, they grew up in a wealthy neighborhood and expect multi million dollar inheritances. They are not duds, just wholly underachieving adults.[/quote]
