Maybe they are aware of it but they prioritize things differently and are unwilling to occasionally indulge themselves in a luxury expense. I know people who literally sent their parents on vacation as a gift because they would never do it themselves. Not that they weren't aware they needed/wanted a vacation but that given the choice it is not something they would rather spend their money on.
