Correct. I doubt fefe23 has ever seen TNG, because Wesley was in no way, shape, or form a desirable role model for anyone.
(My understanding is that Wesley was sort of a self insert for Star Trek creator, Eugene Wesley Roddenberry. As with all of the other times Roddenberry tried to artificially impose his own Message(TM) on the show, it failed miserably.)
