Obviously the story is an extreme case.
But if millennials are so "unprepared for life" as you said, wouldn't a large part of that be the fault of their parents, amongst other things?
Personally, I think there's a large number of my generation that are just absolutely pathetic humans. And they typically are the ones that had helicopter parents that would prop them up as being the greatest thing ever, and never scolding them, etc. But that's not my entire generation, not even close.
But it's hard to get out of your parents house when you graduate school with 50-150K in debt, are making 30K a year in an entry level position, and have to pay an exorbenant amount in rent every month.
Trust me, I did not want to be in my parents house as long as I was after college. It sucked, and it frankly put my life on hold. But it literally would ghave been impossible for me to afford to move out, pay loans, and then have money to feed myself.
Absolutely. Helicopter parents who are afraid to let their kids do something and fail, so they can learn from the experience, are a huge part of the issue.
