Two sides to a coin, and also the difference between micro and macro. On an individual level, of course you're gonna help your kids, but on a large scale if help from family is required despite being otherwise doing everything you need to go (working, not squandering your money, etc), that's just bad news for the economy, and indeed promotes "nepotism", the bad kind.
