I'm not sure if citations needed has ever done an episode on articles like this, but as a parent and a leftist it's hard to not start noticing that nearly all parenting "experts" or "success" stories seem to basically boil down to people 'richsplaining' how to raise your kids into successful CEOs and career paths.
I find this incredibly frustrating because this bassically accepts as a framework that your kid becoming a CEO is an inarguably laudable goal, rarely if ever asks questions about how psychologically well adjusted they are as people, and perhaps most importantly never addresses the elephant in the room of the role class plays.
I feel like my entire life, in basically every form of media I've ever seen: helicopter parenting has been assumed as being wrong and harmful. These days it's hard for me not to ask if this isn't just an extension of the culture of "personal responsibility" and "pulling yourself up by your bootstraps."
I mean Kudos to Janet I guess, but Susan is the CEO of a company kept afloat entirely by Alphabets gajillions and everybody trusting that eventually, it'll become profitable without destroying itself and 23andMe is at best a marketing company for shit you could always do if you were so inclined. 2/3 of her kids basically fell down the stairs upwards for all it's worth
That's a terrible thing to hope for.
