Parenting at a Loss

The other day the Little Prince (my brother) made the unfortunate mistake of calling Mama Lai while she watching a TV program featuring proteges.  Without waiting to hear what the Little Prince was calling for, she grumbled:
"There is a boy who at age six sold a beautiful painting for $265,000.  Where did I go wrong??"
The Little Prince ignored Mama Lai and complained that he was hungry and had nothing to eat.  When I called Mama Lai, she was quite agitated over the Little Prince's lack in concern and sighed:
"I've parented three children...I'm parenting at a loss of $265,000 per child!"
