Facing adversity when one is young is important. Elon Musk faced it a lot and so did Arnold Schwarzenegger. Both of them credit it for building resilience in them. But again it will back fire if there is too much adversity / trauma.

In fact in one of the interviews Elon talks about implementing structured adversity.

Elon Musk is no posterchild for someone who has experienced adversity nor is he an example of good parenting.
Yeah. No advice and ignorance is better than certain advice
