3 months before my 13 years old son wanted me to buy him a galaxy 5. I enquired my wife, how does he know about galaxy 5 that even me I am not familiar with? "It is from Television adds", my wife answered.

I don't mind buying one for my son if he has a clear reason for it, if it supports his studies in any way. I just enquired him " what are you planning to do with this galaxy 5? He said, "I don't know". the boy was attracted by repeated t.v. adds. So I did not buy this for my son otherwise I wanted to give him the best possible. Instead presented a laptop with a good collection of movies in it.

These days children does not like to read much. Watching good and selected movies may be an alternative to movies though not a substitute.

Children make requests to their parents everytime not because they really need something, could be misled by add or word of the mouth from some of theri school friends.

It is the responsible partent to decide upon..
