In Jean Sasson's "The Complete Princess Trilogy," the author reflects on how the current generation of children is affected by their comfortable lifestyles. He suggests that their abundance of material wealth has led to a lack of ambition and fulfillment. This notion implies that with fewer struggles, these children may not develop the resilience or drive that often comes from overcoming challenges.

The trilogy highlights the complexities of privilege and how it can impact personal growth. Sasson argues that the ease of life experienced by today's youth might lead to a sense of emptiness, as they miss out on pursuing meaningful goals or finding genuine satisfaction in achievements. This commentary serves as a critique of modern luxury and its consequences on character development.
