As long as they “get it” that makes a lot of sense. At the end of the day it’s also just about bringing up good people who can contribute to this world. Not master of the universe types.
I also find this fascinating because of my own confusing dual-national upbringing. Every society has slightly different elites with unique ideals driving how kids are selected in admissions processes. What’s silly in one echelon, can be important in another. In my European country people would laugh at this idea that somehow having a simple job helps with anything.
