So wealthy people are buying their kids way into elite
colleges…I can’t say I’m surprised. I suppose that the personality of those who
would do anything to become famous lends to expecting the same for their kids.
Doesn’t make it any less sorry an example, and especially
for those kids, some of whom were complicit. It’s pathetic that parents would
teach their children that the ends justify the means; that being the center of
attention is one’s main goal in life; and most of all, that their child isn’t
good enough as they are. They think so little of their child that they don’t
trust their abilities or strength to achieve a worthy goal. They communicate to
their kids that they are only worthy when they have achieved the highest, even
if they have to cheat to get there.
And they call that love...SO far off the mark!
I continue to wonder why we care about celebrities’ opinions
on life.
