Genuine, focused devotion to another's development does require self-sacrifice. Many, many great artists were doted on by their mothers to the exclusion of their mothers' exploration of their own development--the result being spoiled, selfish brats that are self absorbed and very talented. This often sets up a paradigm which the artist seeks to replicate in adulthood, and in these times I don't think most women are willing to serve this role, so "hot house" nurturing is usually over once most budding artists leave the nest.

Not a complaint, just an observation.
