Honestly? This is kinda what you get for paying for everything for your kids. They end up not taking their schooling seriously, because mommy/daddy are still driving the car. They need "driving lessons" before you hand over the wheel, or else they inevitably drive themselves over a cliff, because it might look "fun," not realizing no parent in the world is capable of catching your fucking car.
I absolutely hate how many parents fail to have the foresight for this sort of inevitability. Nurturing is cool and all, but that's only step fucking 1. You can't just buy their way into adulthood you absolute morons. Sure, it opens kids up for opportunity, but that's about it. If they lack the motivation, that opportunity may as well be a wall.
I blame fickle marriages. The mother/father dynamic plays heavily in what kid needs to properly develop. Take one out of the picture, and those ideals get lopsided as all fuck. You end up with a mom that's all nurture but no push. You end up with just a dad that just wants to push you out of the house, leading to the kid with little early financial stability. It is INCREDIBLY difficult for a single parental entity to fulfill both roles, because the kid will identify you as one or the other. Not both.
Sorry, got a little ranty there...
