re: 15-year-old says her $1,000 monthly allowance makes her 'feel like a peasant'

Listens to a podcast this week and this guy had talked about his past work experience and how he had worked on reality tv. He said obviously it was all fake but they want people the producers can control. He said they were doing a reality show on some obnoxious rich woman and they cut ties with her because she got fat and wanted more of a say in her arcs for the season

Have a downvote!
It’s more about being an ungrateful bitch that was all of a sudden given a very generous budget and if she can’t live within it, she should find a job. At that age if I spent more than my parents allowed me, tough luck it was on me to find a way to pay. So I like many others went out and got a job after school

Okay, I see. That makes sense now
I mean, yeah. I'm not endorsing it, but, there is an almost universal message in our Pop Culture and Mass Media that is telling all of our young women today that THIS IS the Lifestyle that you want to live right here right now in 2018 USA.
I guess the message from good parents should be something like, "yeah we all want the good things in life, but we have to have a balance and we all must live within our means; and most importantly, opulent affluence is not the key to being a good and happy person."
Although I'd like to try and see whether extensive wealth and opulence could buy my own happiness.
So, when can I tune in to watch this upcoming Reality TV show? I want to see what she looks like after she has more cosmetic surgery completed.

No one wants to watch The Real Housewives of Chackbay.

I unfortunately saw that Dr. Phil episode. Her mom is an apparently a hard-working DDS who made it big because of her entrepreneurial skills and work ethic. Her daughter has the money, but none of those other things. She could never duplicate what her mom did.

No, he's asking why it's surprising because this is the product of what of society thinks is desirable. This girl is what happens when people glorify the Kardashians, the real housewives of x, etc.
Me dont think the kardashians were on a $5k allowance a month at such a young age.
Meaning, she will turn out worse and or just broke because she wont have it in her to build her brand because she never had to. When mommy stops working, then what?

I see this misconception all the time. Being smart doesnt mean you will be a good parent, and being dumb doesnt mean you will be a bad parent
Waaaaaaay more goes into it than that

Bingo.
Good parenting starts with setting boundaries, structure and loving your kids enough to tell them no, even if that pisses them off.
No amount of intelligence can compensate for the lack of those skills/abilities.
