You should not wish for someone to roll over their car, no matter how old they are. Sure the kid *might* not deserve the car (do we know this person? Maybe he/she's a saint. Maybe he/she is a genius who invented some wonderful gadget being sold on the net and has millions; who knows) but no-one deserves to roll their car.
Also, think of the Viggen. All is not well in the world when a beautiful car rolls over.
Just relax... these kids get what is coming to them eventually (without incuring bodily harm, hopefully). I grew up far from impoverished, but I also turned out ok (I think!). As another said, it is all in the parenting. I am very lucky to have 2 wonderful parents who showed me the value of hard work and the difference between right and wrong. I did not have a fun car until I was in college (drove a minivan in high school) but now I appreciate the cars I have that much more.
I went to a high school that had an odd mix of wealth, poverty and everything in between. I think everyone made a mess there, not just the rich kids! Be careful generalizing!
