I'm an entrepreneur and parent makes a valid point even though they are exaggerating. Hardship and pressure can indeed fuel startup success - it makes a huge difference if you are running out of cash in X months and know you have to fire everything and bury what you exclusively worked on for the last X years. That captures the dark side of entrepreneurship perfectly. I believe we can see this effect also in countries like Israel or many African countries.
