Maybe its because they fall hook like and sinker for the applications that the "helopats" helped them make.

This shit is ridiculous.

heh my sister was this way with her first kid. She would do everything for her daughter. I mean everything. From schoolwork (wich is funny my sister never got above a c) to all her chores. She was a spoiled kid.

during her last year of high school she was dating a kid from a very wealthy family. Then they all went to college (her boyfriend works for the family business). My niece to a local CC college. She failed out. So she decided college is not what she really wants to do. she wanted to be a cosmetologist she fucking failed out of that. That's when her boyfriend dumped her saying she was worthless.

Now? she works in a store claiming she is a JR manager. lol

I cannot believe this. Does the aunt have any friends or relatives who ever went to college?

The aunt went to college. She is kind of nutty though. It's like the daughter is a queen and the aunt's role in the kingdom is to immediately take care of anything that could be an irritant. Total appeasement. We were visiting the aunt's sister in the hospital once when the aunt and daughter (at that time, about 13 years old) came to visit. After about 15 minutes, the daughter said she was bored. The aunt looked at her hospitalized sister and shrugged and said they were going to leave.

I don't think the daughter will last the first year in college unless she has a major transformation.
