From what we’ve seen with our kids and their friends, who are now in their late 20’s, is that, the “success rate,” i.e.–achieving your dreams in life–is about 50/50–even with the very best education money can buy, and other advantages. Dont’ know if that ratio will become better or worse as time goes on.
Whether young people consider themselves to be “spoiled,” “entitled,” or anything else, won’t make much difference in the real world. In the final analysis, as all things in life, regardless of whom or what is at “fault,” you either get what you want in life, or you don’t, and young people will find there are few exceptions.
