Oh, the stories I can tell.
Neighbor's son (only child) is 30. Never shoveled snow, never mowed the lawn, had private tennis lessons all through teen years, parents paid for apartment and tuition for college years, got married and parents bought them new house with pool, furnished the place, and dad does all the repairs on the house *and* the three Alfa's parents gave them with the new house. Calls dad when car oil needs changing, when new tires are needed, when engine needs work, when a circuit breaker trips in the house, when furnace filter needs changing, when pool needs chlorine - and when they need taxi to airport for the European vacations parents give them.
Teach your children to be self-reliant. Seems to be a fast-disappearing motto.
