Hello Gamespot.
Kids are really starting to get spoilt. I know 4-9 year olds with high end smartphones and laptops. A particular kid I know has a Samsung F480 and a high end Acer laptop at the age of 8. I'm 13, and I saw this kid with that phone and thought that her parents were crazy. Not only letting her have a high end smartphone, but also putting a SIM card into it and paying for lengthy calls that she will make to her friends about braiding each other's hair. And they complain about money issues and live in a small unit. What is wrong with them?
This particular kid also had a high end Acer laptop and wanted an iPad. Me being like a brother to her, shs came to me for advice. She said that she wanted an iPad. I asked her what exactly she planned to do with a gadget like that. She told me, and I told her that see could do all of that and more with her current laptop. But she said no, and that her heart had an Apple logo on it and that's why see needed the iPad. She then proceeded to go off and ask her mum for an iPad. This was all done in jealousy as I had recently bought an iPad myself.
On the day that I bought the iPad, she came with my family and I. We stopped over at the Smiggle store because she wanted some stuff. We bought the stuff and left. The following day, her family and her came over to our house. Her mum said to my mum that they were leaving to get her some toys. She wanted toys because her 1 year old brother had had some toys bought for him the previous day. How spoilt is that!
End of rant.
