A Conflict Btw A Father And His First Son...advice Needed.. by misreal(m): 7:45am On Dec 29, 2014
his dad buys him a laptop.due to financial constraint,it wasn't a laptop of his choice..its now his yo under brothers turn to have a laptop.he now demands that the new laptop should be given to him and the old one,given to his younger brother.his dad refused because he feels its cheating,seeing that they are both from the same parents and has equal rights.believing the younger son should not be subjected to using already used stuff of his elder brother..in my opinion,their dad is right even though his first son's argument is logical...what is your opinion??

Doesnt the laptop work or do what is required?
I dont see what the problem is here.
How old is the guy?
If he is of age, then he can hustle to replace his own laptop since the parents even struggled to get him the laptop inthe first instance.

The first son's argument is dumb and not logical. He is just being selfish. These are the type of brothers that go extremely jealous when their siblings do better in life. smh

The senior brother is wrong.

A lap top is a personal thing that contains allot of stuff you download. You don`t need to give it to someone else.

There is a joy attached to having something new.

The younger one is likely tog get a better deal because technology improves and gets cheaper. So he cannot compare.

It is wrong and sad that he does not want his junior to have a good thing.

I remember when i was young my father bough 7 dresses on a trip he made. My senior picked the first four and left me with three. I went to my father to compplain, he said I had no right she was older. I pleaded and cried for over an hour. Finally convinced him that he should just look at what my sister picked and what she left for me. I just wanted him to look and not even comment. He finally agreed. When he saw it he got very angry with my sister and told her she was very mean. She really picked the very best, two skirt suits and two dresses and left me with two simple dresses. My father made her share it again , how I wanted it. She picks one, I pick one.... Seniors can be mean !

Big bro should chill na sebi he got new laptop why should he want to deprive his younger bro a new laptop too? We need to teach children to be content with what they have covetousness starts from lil things.Would he still not be using his laptop if his bro was not getting a new one?

Children will be children and as an egbon in my family I know you try to use your 'seniority' to chance your younger ones but I was quickly put straight by my parents.My parents taught me that I have a responsibility towards my younger ones to protect them, mentor them be there for them and in my case alot of times sacrifice for them.Seniority is not just about 'chancing'.
Re: A Conflict Btw A Father And His First Son...advice Needed.. by misreal(m): 11:33am On Dec 29, 2014

Aunty chaircover and oga jaybee3 oga oo,this your cat fight nawa o. Aunty cc that cat look like ******* cat oo *winks*

@ op, am sure you are the elder brother in question,biko free your brother let him have his own new laptop oo. The one you are using presently might not be your brothers choice of laptop. And like someone posted above,you went to the market and got it yourself so why wanting to give it now

You are kinda selfish and not satisfied with what you have. Thank God for your own oo,some just pray to have a father or even one to buy them shoes but don't have the privilege.

And NO,not all elder brothers and sisters are like that.
