I kind of feel sorry for kids like that. I understand wanting to give your children everything you possibly can, but letting them grow up that out of touch with the rest of the world isn't doing them any favors. Even if they're basically nice people, they're probably going to end up saying/doing really insensitive rich privilege type things because they don't know any better.

At a certain point, there's really not a lot the parents can do to keep their kid in touch with the rest of the world. Short of shipping them off to grow up with an impoverished relative or something, I mean. Unless you've lived the life, it's not something you really CAN understand, going either direction.

I don't think you have to go that far to make sure your kids understand that the lifestyle you live is exceptional rather than average. Like the above anon's friend's situation... you could maybe NOT give your child three ponies and a car for their 16th birthday. Just because you're rich doesn't mean you absolutely have to do that. But yes, it depends on whether or not the parents also grew up with all the privileges of the rich or not.

Yeah, the three ponies thing is driving me nuts.

I don't see why one pony wouldn't have sufficed, in that instance.

I've never known anyone who owned their own horse, I don't think, but I did know several girls who took horse riding lessons.

I've known plenty of people who own horses or ponies that weren't rich at all. I think it just depends on where you live. And owning more than one pony/horse/cow makes sense because they're herd animals and they need companion animals with them to really be mentally healthy afaik. I think it's probably actually worse to just have one because it would get lonely.

But, having ponies at all is a little silly.
