Not even with straight A yo. Because no iPhone 17 is not essential.

No lol

what kind of achievement by kids constitute a ipong 17 anyway?

Training your kids by buying iPhone 17 when they achieve all A is stupid. End up they will grow up learning they need to buy the latest and costliest to show off and feed their ego.

It's fine to buy with own money. My problem is expect to spend other people money to procure the latest flex piece.

u rich u want to buy, u buy lo. u have doubt, then dun buy lo.
Usually parent give kid their old phone, buy new iphone.

Is this still available today? If today use this will kena kecam destroying jalur gemilang or not?

Back then i wanted a gameboy after a friend of mine showed me, i was so impressed and asking my dad to get me 1. He said i get number 1 in class then he'll get me that gameboy, unlucky for me nope i only get like 8th in class.

Ok appropriate song for this thread



Let's hit it

deep down inside , they want us to see, but not to tell them anything, just enjoy the show

Things always change.

New generations always live better.

Can't compare or else you'll end up hating new generations more not realizing you actually live better than your grandparents.

Compared to the bommer's parents they are worse than us. Dying in starvation. No rice no meat. Only tree bark to eat. World war. Disease. Physical torture. No parents since birth.

When they see us still got chance to go to school study. Got parents take care when we're kids. Got rice to eat. Play guli during free time. Eat meat. They also geleng kelapa saying kids nowadays (us) are so blessed and don't know what hard life really tastes like.

depends on their circle lah

some cb circle not only bragging about hp, even where they went during school holiday, plus sharing pics , gifts and all

they will carry the same mindset when they become adult soon

low self esteem

then need to have so called same standard with others

die die need to otang 9 years for Onda, Toyoda, which they cant even afford in the first place

then open tered like some fella here lulz

need virtual validation from strangers that dont even give a flying f also

Any of you guys still remember the brand name of yoyo's popular back in the 80's?? It's not auldey or coca-cola brand  :confused:

everyone says things are simplier and nicer....

hmmm... we only miss the good old things, we tend to forget the misery.

no live game on time, need to check NBA result the next day.

yes- there are good childhood, but i like the current lifestyle

Bullshit . When u see your friend playing Starcraft , you wanted a PC and internet connection as well . When you see your friend playing Final Fantasy , you also wanted a Playstation

You see your friend have Tamagotchi or Digimon , you wanted one as well .

There is always a "want" , always wanted to join your peers .

when my child wanted something....I just tell him to cut out from newspaper. He put on his study table and motivate himself to study hard.

now on his table got pic cutting of ipong17, Jaeco J7, Porsche, ferrari, yacht

It’s not right or wrong

The person that buying it might be a sohai that need a few bitch slap by depriving the child of all that is beautiful outside and let the child get glued to the phone like a punk ass bitch it is

Big.no, it's  alright from time to time give the kids a treat. But there must be a limit.

Ask your kid why does.he need latest iPhone for? To play games? A budget or mid range smart phone will do. To show off? Time to give them a lecture on how.lucky they are & that plenty of less fortunate people can't even feed their family because can't find jobs.

If you give them all the latest high end toys/gadgets without them even making a effort. You are.not.only spoiling them but ruining their adult life.

How are they going survice on a entry level job with average pay when they are so used to the high life?

Just last week got a ktard post in serious kopitiam where 22 year old girl earn 10k working for syndicate. Then try to find legit.job not happy with the salary cause can't meet her monthly commitments. Sure after a while she go back work for the syndicate because addicted to highend lifestyle.

Teach your kid to be grateful & live a moderate lifestyle.even when make it big. Otherwise will become like jamban, never safe money. Spend like there's no tomorrow, now can't even pay Teresa her dues & hide from bailiff plus is a nobody now. Somemore got young kid.

Ah, the good old.days where we either study hard or help out with the chores & during birthday get game console considered a big thing. Now kids want i phone pulak,yeesh

I guarantee u bro when the girl reaches late teens the mother that time will no longer say poor daughter suffer but will be cursing her for being charsiew.

My old neighbourhood divorcee the eldest daughter after finish school never further studies or get a job. Whole.day main muzik watch movies & hanging out with the other dropouts. Mother scream at her to get a job & even father also tell her to.

Problem is she is spoiled she wear expensive shoes cost rm1000. Mid 90's entry pay is 1200 i think. At home got maid so where she can tahan 9-5job or get married become housewife. She got horrible attitude also.
