none of the adults in the room were prepared to act like one.
this is a weird thing to say. I'm sure plenty of doctors denied him, which is the only "adult" action anyone could take that they had any right to. You only need one asshole. As for the rest, well people weren't yes men (just) because he was rich, people were yes men because he was a highly effective, wildly cunning adult businessman who deliberately arranged his life so that he was in control of it. It's very weird to suggest that people using their autonomy badly, unethically, unreasonably, aren't adults and don't know what they're doing, when they usually, and in this case also, know exactly what they're doing.

I think maybe anon means the people who could have pulled him up on it, like his parents?

Still yeah, you make a good point.

[meadowphoenix]

i think my point is that anything his parents could do would have had to be with his agreement, and there was no point in his solo career that he was taking his parent's advice. they have no power over him inherently (and further any power they did have would have been a result of his father's abuse and his mother's complacence thereby so calling that "adult" is questionable).

They were yes men because he was a celebrity. If he had fired the people who worked for him, or they worked for someone else and he threw a shitfit and had them fire, they'd suddenly get a reputation of being "difficult to work with" and no one would have anything to do with them. They wouldn't just be out of a job, they wouldn't be able to get another one either.

And no, doctors didn't deny him anything, unless they were interested in losing all their rich clients.

Plenty of celebrities have people say no to them. I promise you that not all celebrities have arranged their life so that they have final decision-making power. He did.

If he had fired the people who worked for him, or they worked for someone else and he threw a shitfit and had them fire, they'd suddenly get a reputation of being "difficult to work with" and no one would have anything to do with them. They wouldn't just be out of a job, they wouldn't be able to get another one either.
Yes, that's pretty regular for businessmen assholes. I don't disagree that this is likely, that's literally how most unethical businessmen behave. What this isn't however is "nobody being an adult" like the OG anon commented.

And no, doctors didn't deny him anything, unless they were interested in losing all their rich clients.
lmao just because some doctors are like this about rich people doesn't mean all were and so none ever said no, that is weird to imply.
