But what do you propose as an alternative?
I personally have no issue with parents wanting to help their children to have a better life than they did and giving them a helping hand because without this you'd have a caste system. My blue collar parents struggled to put my sister through UCLA and now she and her husband (who grew up very poor but also went to UCLA) can afford to send their daughter to whatever $elite_school she wants in a few years without any question on the costs.
So if my niece somehow manages to make $empire it truly isn't solely her doing it herself but a generational effort and not X privilege as you imply.
