wait what was his rant about lorde??

during a live stream (that's been taken down by dan) he ranted reading an article about lorde and her upbringing

if you scroll down to the bottom of this post here you'll see it's been copyrighted by dan and a full transcript of what he says but ill copy and paste it as well (click the read more link to see what he says):

Speaking of Lorde…I found this article on Lorde that someone wrote……But she had like the best childhood, seriously. It’s like…I think like her dad is an engineer or something like that and then her mum is a poet, and they live in a nice house where they…like, her dad sung to her every night and her mum read her books, and then, they made her read loads of books and she read thousands of books, and then they all wrote songs together and had a really artistic and beautiful childhood. And I just think, like, so much of life is about, um, your childhood and, like, your parents. ‘Cause, like, a parent could make someone, like, amazing by the time they’re eighteen. So, like, Lorde had this amazing— […] just had, like, the best childhood. And I was like, I’m so happy for you, that you were given this childhood, and then that made, like, your life this great. And it’s like…it’s like Jack and Finn. They had a really nice family, and they have a dad with a really cool job. Whereas it’s like, I feel gypped. Like, my parents didn’t give a fuck. (laughs) They just like…me and like everyone, I was just, like, shoved through education, and then I got to — it was the entire reason, like the entire story of the last four years of my life, and that quarter-life crisis trilogy. It’s just — no one prepared me for life. They just kind of — I just kind of existed until I was seventeen and then expected to know what I was doing. And then obviously we know the story: I was like “uhhh…uhhh, okay, guess I’m doing law at university, oh wait I hate this, okay, mental breakdown.” (laughs) So, so, high five to everybody who wasn’t adequately prepared for life by their parents. Geez, guys. I feel like you shouldn’t have kids unless you’re prepared to make…to nurture their lives. You know what I mean? It’s like, “Oh, two-year-old girl, I see that you like drawing. Well, I’m gonna let you do loads of drawing, because you clearly like it.” You know what I mean? Whereas most kids, it’s like, “Oh okay, I guess that you’re drawing but I’m just gonna put the TV on, and then I’ll just leave you. I’ll just do parenting in auto-pilot.”
