Are Teddy books actually meant for MOASS winners, and not children? (lemmy.world)

Here's a thought I had...

The Teddy books aim to instill good values into the reader. While these are definitely useful for children, it occurs to me these lessons would also be incredibly useful for anyone cashing in big wins from MOASS.

Need vs. want, delayed gratification, doing good in the world, etc.

Are we the real target audience? Is RC actually taking on the role of "dad" for us ignorant masses?
