Despite his best intentions, Tripp is often dismayed at the behavior of his children, telling Nick he wishes he had raised a child that had turned out as well as him. He often uses his money and power to "help" or guide his children, often met with their disapproval, such as funding a play so Juliet may act or pushing his eldest son in to politics.
