I got neices and nephews who were taught by their mom to ask for handouts from family members who they thought "had it". They would not offer to lift a finger in return. They would not contact you for any other reason. They would use their money as they saw fit on material things.
On one occasion one neice told me during a stern discussion she only contacts me to ask for stuff otherwise she has no interest in talking to me. She's now in her late 20's, college dropout, 3 kids, 3 baby daddies, and probably still living in some delusion about life and still has no self awareness.
Another neice, I would pick up from college and drive 3 hours back and forth when she wanted to go home. One day she tells her mother, uncle always trying to give me advice but I don't want to hear it.
Her mother shared it with me because she is like minded. Her daughter only wanted the ride. She didn't want advice.
Some people think you just owe them something for nothing. They grow up thinking they can just take, take, take or if you have more then they look at you as their meal ticket. They have no idea about how life really works. It creates a victim. People who have fragile egos and get upset with others success unless they can use it to their advantage. Disparage one in favor of the other.
Sometimes those conversations don't come easy. Unless Rand speaks on the background of the interpersonal relationship between her and her neice then we don't know all the conflict involved in this particular letter. I've never heard of this particular writting to her neice until now.
You have people bely helping them understand responsibility, self reliance, humility, respect but sometimes that happens through hard lessons.
Unless you have experience in understanding then you are often befuddled by things that appear to be common sense to others.
