Thanks, I only wish that subsequent generations in my family could have learned these simple truths.
We have a faction of ‘entitlement whores’ in my family. My siblings raised their kids trying to give them what we didn’t have growing up - materially, but forgot to give them the benefit of the lessons learned from our parents and grandparents.
I work at a southern beach resort. I see thousands of those kids this time of year. The concentration and numbers are such that I have to remind myself that these do not constitute the whole of their generation.
