I think the kid question is easy. Yes, you give them things you did not have but you also have to foster a sense of respect of the privileges they may have now that others do not. You can also have them earn things as well with whatever that might be. Your childhood is different then theirs qualitatively, temporally and situationally. And I think what kids really want and need is quality time with their parents regardless.
None of this serves to answer the question of how they deal with it, but rather to confirm what we probably all know: while money makes certain things in life easier, it is not a cure for all ills.
