I will admit that I am super lucky. My kids seem to have done well in the genetic lottery. They seem to have gotten the best from me and my wife (although my wife is perfect (don't judge, the Internet is forever.)) My son got great grades, was a competitive hockey player through Juniors and never ever got in trouble. Went to a good college, graduated (in 4 years) and got a job. Not stuck in adult-o-lescense. My daughter is 17 and she is the super-bright committed student and a great artist. She will have all options open to her. They are both bright, talented, good, honest, and caring people. I have been blessed and lucky. The only real problem is that my daughter as developed a serious disdain for any car under about $80K. Needs work on her money skills...
