farm life dream, and protectiveness leads to egoism

Just saw outside of my building an interesting scene: rich parents and their daughter, next to their BMW car, parked in front of the Ritz (they don't stay there, but they chose to park there), man around 50, tired eyes of working a lot but successful, a bit authoritarian, woman blond tall, around 40, urban and classic, child in the outfit of the private catholic school nearby. The dad moving fast around the child and rolling a dust-removing tool over the child's outfit. The child, puzzled by a chinese kid passing by, says 'why is she walking alone to school?'

Thought: doesn't parental attention (focus or even obsession) create and nurish the notions of possession/individualism/egoism within the child's mind? So kids with brothers and sisters should be more sharing/communists than single children.

Meta-question: [prelude] last night I dreamt (when waking up, at the half-time where you still remember your dreams) that I was living in a farm, working 11-12 hours a day, without distractions, entertainment, and life was clear, simple. [question] What makes reflective ideas interesting? The particular flavor of intellectual ideas, how it occupies the mind (with a blue color), fills it with something that makes everything else uninteresting. And then the oblivion, when life comes back.
