User blog comment:Yatanogarasu/Children Inherit Parents' Legacy/@comment-1595565-20110301004152

I'm glad you brought this up. It's common in the real world to hold certain expectations for children depending on what their parents do. Child A's parents are both successful lawyers, so child A is assumed to become a lawyer from birth, and is usually raised with the idea that s/he should study law. I do think it is wrong to hold children guilty for the crimes their parents committed. I like comparing this idea to the Goa Nobles, who want their children to grow up to follow in their footsteps. The only difference is that among the nobles, that behavior is considered ok, but the nobles can be just as cruel and heartless as pirates, yet they have done nothing wrong. It makes me think of the phrase, "Like father, like son." It is the uglier side of Absolute Justice.
