...who is way more bothered that these rich folks don't seem to want to spend time with their kids, than with the fact that they have private jets? I'm tired of putting parents who have more money than sense on display.

Geez, if you're going to pack them off to camp for SEVEN weeks, spend a little time in the car DRIVING them to camp. The jet seems to be just for the parents' convenience to get them back to the office/country club/Hamptons/whatever.

I don't begrudge anybody who can afford a private jet, mostly because, in all honesty, it would be the first thing on the shopping list if I had the means.

I don't have a problem with sending kids to camp, but 7 weeks? And sending them to camp in a private jet seems at odds with the purpose of going to camp (getting away from all the modern luxuries).
