or did his parents fail him. Providing an environment where he was rewarded/coddled without having to put effort in

As far as I know the research on that topic is inconclusive. One study finds the one thing, the next one the other. It can be harmful to associate reward, attention, affection with effort into or the results of tasks. And it can be harmful to not do it.

I just want to advise to be careful with such statements as this might foster detrimental parenting and education strategies.
