People find it easier to blame others than to take responsibility for their own actions.
Life is work. You don't necessarily get paid for the important jobs you do. At least not with money. Parents are expected to take responsibility for raising their children. Not just feeding and housing them, but making sure they are equipped to live in a world that requires much more than money.
Owning things requires maintaining them. Whether that is hiring someone to do the work, or doing it yourself.
Good Samaritans who like to volunteer to help others are nice, but it doesn't mean they are off the hook. They are still responsible for their underage children's well being and the maintenance of their possessions.
It's the old tortoise and hare story over and over again. The hare runs madly around with no plan in mind, like a Mad Hatter, while the tortoise plods inexorably forward until things are finished. The hare might be more impressive, but the tortoise gets the job done.
In the end the hare loses because he just did not get the job done.
