Parenting in Elites families like: Rockefeller?

[bishal]

I am obiously sure that the chldren of the elites are raised very peacefully without violence. Their primary care taker may not be their parents but will have loving care takers for them. Accoarding to pro-child (environmental) parenting what Stefan advocates, this child peacefully raised should not want to be a power hungry, money eater, psychopath who wants to control the society. But isn´t these families children do the same act of enslaving us even they are raised peacefully??

If that were so, most of the royalty would not be inbred, as that would break most of the nap.I think this thing surpasses the old dynasties.

I'd imagine there'd be a lot of loneliness during a childhood of being raised by someone like a nanny, as opposed to my biological parents (who would be around sometimes but not accessible, especially not emotionally). Childhood loneliness, caused by inattentive parents, leads to the overdevelopment of the intellect as a coping mechanism. It would not be a surprise to me that the sons and daughter of wealthy parents would remain in their social class because of their advanced intellects (and under developed emotions). The mercantalist world economy we live in props up those who can pursue their fortunes in a largely amoral, narcissistic manner.

I'd also think that misbehaviors on the part of a child would draw much less attention from the State (which lowers everyone's standard of living) because the wealthy tend to live on estates and private floors, free from the oversight of a community. There's no cop or concerned neighbor knocking on the door. The children of the wealthy grow up in this empty bubble of overintellectualization where the few misteps against their parents' authority that would draw outside attention (physical violence, drug use, and risky sexual behavior) are left relatively free of outside intervention. Money affords isolation.

This is something I've theorized on before. It's a really interesting thought. I've formed my own opinions by reading up on the lives on some of the Kennedys, the Johnson&Johnson kid who made a documentary about his father's company, and Richard Branson's life post-children.

"I am obiously sure that the chldren of the elites are raised very peacefully without violence."

 

Do you have evidence to support this assertion?

Having come from a ruling class, I can tell you that peaceful parenting is not at all the norm. Boarding school and caning was my lot.
