This is not right. There are more productive ways to teach them about greed. If their uncle or aunt gave them a PS4 as souvenir for their cousin's birthday, would you ask them to take it back just to teach them your own lesson on greed? You just unnecessarily stifled their happiness for the time being. Poverty chop elbow. The right thing to do, if you care, is to locate who bought them the gift. Confirm that the person's parent(s) is(are) okay with it lest we have a case of someone using his/her tuition fee or stealing his/her parents money just to impress our of peer pressure. 8 Likes 1 Share |

Sebastine1994: Well, You know the kind of school you sent your child to, so you shouldn't be suprised or alarmed such is happening. There are schools that all their long vacations must be spent on excursion outside the country. I guess those parents can afford it, and if your child is in such schools and you are trying to preach the morals of contentment there it may be effort in futility. My advice, if that school is one that encourages "showing off gifts" for school birthdays I advice you take your child away from there to a more modest one especially the one you can afford. your preaching will be met with much resistance from other parents who believe pampering a child with gifts or birthday bashes is what shows that you love the child. 4 Likes |

Na wa o...why reject the gift? You could have had a word with the teacher or even seek permission to speak with the celebrating parent. It is well...may God gift us with wisdom jare. Poor children. Both celebrant and your child would feel so bad. |

I agree with op. This has nothing to do with inferiority complex. I will be very uncomfortable with that gift and will say as much. To start with, I will never encourage any parent to expose their children to any gaming device at such a young age. At that developmental level, they may get addicted and can continue with that affliction for life especially now that gaming companies are almost cracking virtual reality. Secondly, a wanton display of opulence at that age is simply unhealthy. One can be exorbitantly rich but that is no excuse for sheer stupidity. Final verdict, I will return that gift and warn my child to stay away from that classmate of his. 5 Likes 1 Share |

This man has a serious mental problem. If someone gift you a car or a modern house, you will reject it because you can afford to reciprocate the kind gesture? Hisssss, in your mind you have done something noble and worthy of praise? I pity your children. 2 Likes |

OK. I know this story is fake. But let's just pretend that it's real. If so, Mr Man you have an extremely low self esteem. A gift is a gift. If you decide not to celebrate your child's birthday in school, his or her classmates won't make any fuzz about it. It is you that is projecting your insecurities on your children.

Mtcheew. This one dey chase clout. Fake story. But anyway... 1. If you can send your child to a school where a parent can buy ps4 of 150k for everyone in the class (let's say about 15 pupils), then i believe it's a school for the very rich, hence you shouldn't be having this mentality. You cannot be having a child in such 'very expensive' school and be having this mentality. Reason why this story is fake. 2. From the above point, what then happens if another equally rich parent buys something of 200k for all students. Will you then, because it isn't within your means, return it? You believe you should recieve gifts if you can replicate/afford same? Like if a parent share 5 cabin biscuits, you'll be okay with it cause you can afford it? Poverty mentality is just giving you series of blowjobs. Nonsense. It's better you remove her from that school 'cause more gifts will come and will you always say no? 11 Likes 1 Share |
