Are nepo babies in fashion? Well no, what is fashionable is to call them that, because its Spanish translation, daddy's children, is as old as the phenomenon, see taking advantage of the pull of the name or profession or both of the dads (curiously the moms were left out, it was due to suppose that they did not have) to thrive in life without the same pressures, that is, to work and make an effort, as the rest.
Nepotism is inherent to social class, and it does not always occur intentionally, it is enough that parents, especially now mothers, have a university education so that their offspring are already better placed on the starting grid for the world. .
It is also common for there to be more doctors, lawyers or architects in family clusters of identical professions, which must come from what you eat is what you grow.
Possibly what has changed is its visibility, much greater now, either because 1) before, due to a certain bullfighting shame, it was made to look like you had earned it; 2) now those affected, especially actors, models and the like, boast of it: Maya Hawke – Stranger things, where it is said that she was shoehorned in – is the daughter of Ethan Hawke and Uma Thurman, Lily-Rose Depp, of Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis, and that. All very evident, the lack of opportunities is very unfortunate and everything they want, but neither Dakota Johnson nor Apple Martin are going to take our jobs, because we have never been in a position to compete with them.
What really annoys is another social elevator formula that responds to the much more traditional and less glamorous name of plugged in. He or the plugged in are our neighbors or their children, or those of friends (until at that moment they stop being friends), or those of simple acquaintances or those who passed by. They are those and those who due to various circumstances, from the party to the sponsor, overtake us on the right, or the left, with no more merit than that, the party or the sponsor. And unlike the nepo babies of celebrities, they don't announce it, quite the contrary. There must be a reason.
