Parents who are busy with their businesses typically can't be distracted enough to discipline their children. They merely provide them with a lavish material life, hire several nannies to take care of the children, and arrange for drivers to take them to and from places. They feel they are doing so much for their children and even more firmly believe that their efforts to earn money now are all for their children's future, but they overlook that to the children, the affection from their parents is most important.
For some particularly busy parents or those who frequently travel on business, it's very hard for their children to even get a chance to see them. Just as Fan Li had said earlier, when she was busy with business in her younger days, Fan Shaoming might not see her for several days at a time.
