Being the son or daughter of an influential person means that anyone who wants to court him or her, has to be on point.

It's one thing for regular parents to be skeptical of someone who shows interest in their son/daughter, but when that child(ren)'s parents are famous, that's another issue. Famous parents work hard to give their child(ren) the best life possible, so they're going to be 10x more skeptical of any (wo)man checking for their child. Depending on the humility level of the parents, they may be receptive to a regular (wo)man. Because famous parents reached a level of success, they want that for their child(ren). Anyone who's interested in courting their child(ren) has to be able to give them the kind of life their parents did. It takes a lot for parents to entrust their child(ren) into their spouse's care. Parents are trusting their son/daughter's fiancee to care for them the same way they did since Day 1. Let's give a few examples: Steve & Marjorie Harvey. I watched a touching video where Steve broke down at his children's birthday tribute to him. Steve's daughters are very shapely & attractive, and I know that any guy who wanted them, had to go through Steve. From what I know about Steve, he loves his daughters to death. He wants to know his daughters' husbands will provide for them the same way he did. President Obama and his daughters; I feel for the young men who are interested in Sasha and Malia because they'll have to get through Secret Service just to see Mr. President and introduce themselves. Influential parents are going to put every potential husband/wife through the ringer to make sure that (s)he can provide the same kind of life that their son or daughter has been afforded.
