Generally speaking, parents try not to raise entitled kids. However, that does not exclude them from falling into that group themselves.

Meet u/Gwydion-Drys, the entitled son of entitled parents. His father and mother had him when they were still at university.

"In my country, you can start university straight out of our version of high school. Though for men there is mandatory military service for some months or they need to go into civil service for a few months longer," OP writes.

The OP grew up on his mother's parents' farm until he was 6 years old. OP's grandma and his uncle, who was also on the farm, were more parents to him for the first 6 years of his life than his actual parents.

My parents were not that horrible as horrible parents go. I never suffered any violence. But my mother has a very short temper and often screamed at me over things that were not my fault as a kid. And my dad is seriously the smartest man I know. He can by heart recite half the code of law of our country.

The dad wanted the OP to be like him when it came to academics. The parents pulled all funding from the OP when he chose to study archaeology and history, so they were on bad terms.

Later on, OP's parents demanded he hand over the money he got from his grandparents so they could renovate the farm, but that wasn't happening.

OP begins his story

OP's mom was as short-tempered with him as she was with the OP

When they read OP's parents the riot act, they at least gave him a few hundred bucks

OP's parents inherited the farm from his mother's parents and the house of his father's parents

The concluding part

The OP reveals more saying:

There is a legally regulated quota of what percentage of my heritage would need to go to whom. My parents are entitled to a at least a third of my possesions until I have kids of my own. A spouse would also get a third.

And I definitly try to be a better man than my father. There actually is an ancient greek quote "einai kalytero anthropo apo ton patera toy". Translates to be a better man than your father. I have always aspired to be. Though sometimes I catch myself with the same horrible temper and superiority tendencies as my parents.

And the comments roll in...

Do what you want

The OP went after his passion

OP's parents are the entitled ones

They shouldn't be expecting

They should finance themselves

The OP should stand up for himself

"There are provisions in the law, which allow a person to disown their heirs. But as sh*tty as my parents treated me. They never beat me or did something else that would be a reason to disown them," OP reveals.
