I think one thing the aristocracy got right was that your children are a reflection of you as a parent. That seems to have been lost nowadays in the US. Nowadays, a problem kid is due to video games, school, peers, you name it. No, it's the parent, 95% of the time. But we let the parents off with they did their best..but did they?

While I agree with you that it's mostly the parents, I think we poorly equip and support parents. Many have had poor role models to begin with and without external influence are doomed to repeat history. Support for parents is quite poor IMO and should be massively increased. Unfortunately, our society requires children to continue the next generation but we seem to value child-less people more (in our rewards to them).
