It will not happen regardless of the financial condition of the children if they have been pampered beyond hope since young.
It's just a tongue in cheek statement. You and I jolly well know that filial piety is not a given, the traditional paternalistic values lost its standing in the current day me-myself-I society. Those truly capable of placing others before self are rare breeds.
But this I have to say, some values are mirrored and learned, so hopefully our children learned some good values from us. True gentleman style.
