not a parent yet! but I don't think I would tell my child to return a BIRTHDAY gift because it wasn't what I could afford; no I can't; you have a daughter, so I assume you had a wedding? yes? did you reject expensive gifts simply because it wasn't what you could afford and you wouldn't want to reciprocate when it was time for their own weddings? rich people would give out expensive stuffs and not even expect much from you. do the best you can when someone shows you love;that's why all fingers aren't equal |

thebosstrevor1: What is wrong with the gift ??.. gifts that was share to all children... I once also received the big bold 5 then as birthday gift from a senators daughter, when I was in SSS3... In the university I received countless of birthday gifts including books , that ordinarily my parents and I would have find it difficult to afford it, that is nothing to lure me out of the training I got from my parents right from as a kid. [b]Give them the training, and leave them to God, cos of u think u are a master , when it get to the level that u would be there to monitor them , then they would misbehave. The training is not by returning birthday gift, they didn't beg for it, it's a birthday gift ....nothing is bad with that gift at all, there many people waiting for such gift, if u don't want your child to be engage with the game, is a different thing, u can gift it out to another person , not returning it to make it look like as if it's a sacrifice by the celebrant. 1 Like |

This thread shows the number of immature people we have in Nigeria as a whole. That the op views don't match yours doesn't make him dumb or immature or the names some of you are calling him. It is his view. Everyone is entitled to one. People don't have to think alike, that you see something as 9 doesn't mean everyone will see it as 9, some will see it as 6. The diverse ideas is what makes life beautiful. God some comments here sometimes are baffling. Na wa. |

[quote author=tck2000 post=94267718][/quote] I dont agree with the conclusion you guys reached. You guys should understand that in the real world, lots of people show off. On instagram alone, you will see lots of showing off there. It is your responsibility to teach the child to be content with what they have irrespective of what others have. This is not how things work in the real world. Whether you like it or not, you children will still meet people who will show off and rub it on their faces. You are just buying them for them. It will happen sooner or later! |

NaijaCr7: You are just yarning. I have seen church return donation to people because they dont know their sources of income. Nobody can send my child to anywhere or give my child gifts without my permission. Your child can accept anything they give to them but mine will need my permission 1 Like |

kingxsamz: It simply mean the gift giving to his daughter is not free, same might be expected from her daughter when her turn come for celebration. I had first hand experience of what I am saying. A woman I worked for 3yrs ago, her sons went to one of this expensive private secondary School in Lagos.. Mennn, when any of her two sons celebrate their birthday, come see buying, e go marvel you. So, is not ideal forcefully putting urself where u can't manage d tempo. |

Martinez39s:The problem is not the gift. The problem is where the gift was given. Misplaced priority. About the morals; His daughter might end up comparing his father to other fathers when he is not able to afford some things for her in future. 2 Likes |

themaestro08: Go check the internet for evidence, even real life evidence will tell you, the present kids of today are not creative compare to the last generation that didn't have access to internet and other indoor gadgets Also, there was a discussion on cnbc where the commentators said Facebook, Microsoft founders children attend a special school where video games, social media and other gadgets are banned. |

Enwhen: I totally agree with you. What is wrong with a gift. As long as it was given with good intentions, then it is absolutely fine. It is for you to train them and let them know that contentment with godliness is great gain. They didnt beg for you. Someone from a good heart gave them the gift. Me I will not return sha. If I feel the gift is too much, I can as well buy a present for the celebrant and tell my child to give him or I give the parent. |
