    You had someone to take care of you 24/7, always there for you. Cleaning, cooking, buying shit, etc. your parents were managing the household so you could learn.

    Look at children that didn’t have such support - they would perform much worse, usually.

    Ever went on a business trip or conference and stayed in a hotel? You will be surprised how much you get done in one day. Except the hotel can’t provide you with love :’)

      I took this to mean University/College. I ask myself the same thing constantly now that I’m working full time. I don’t know how I dedicated the constant hours to schooling and a part time job for so many years. Maybe it’s just the opportunity for variety.
