It's a pretty big tragedy when it's your money. $500,000 in investments wouldn't be enough for a middle class couple to live on for 30 years of retirement without social security, and still pay their property taxes.

I guess they must have pretty stupid kids if they need to be that coddled and protected. I never worried about what my children heard or saw. I raised them to question and think for themselves.
