Lol someone has to be pretty think skinned for that to happen. Thats why the best leaders (hitler, henry ford, nixon) grew up poor. It helped develop character.

but maybe they're right to take these failures seriously.

i think adults are compelled to rationalize a lot of our failures and uncontrollable circumstances simply as a method of self-preservation. didn't get that cool job? oh well not everyone can be a doctor! wife sleeps around? well, that just how women are these days! etc. etc. Many of us are forced into mediocrity or truly horrible circumstances relative to where we could have been, and to admit as much would be world-destroying. so we are clearly biased. perhaps these kids are the only ones thinking logically.

It's basic psychology and parenting fundamentals - when you're this sheltered and your greatest fear is the great threat of racism and Islamophobia pervading the right rather than having to go off to war, or not having seen child mortality rates as they were in e.g. 19th century, these failure become world shattering.

Children today are raised with every physical and emotional threat imaginable removed from their paths along the way. It's entirely possible to raise children today in such a way that these failures could be the first negative emotions they are exposed to.

the better run schools in good areas set their systems up so as to be as fair as possible, so that most people who do badly and retain high self-esteem almost invariably do so by coming up with transparently fake rationalizations for why they didn't do well that have nothing to do with intrinsic ability or willingness to study (and also nothing to do with reality). if you have spent your whole childhood in an environment like this, you've just internalized the fact that people who give excuses about life being fundamentally random are refusing to face up to their own inferiority when things turn against them. this is because it's actually true of nearly everyone you know who relies on that excuse.
