Today, my son turned 8. We watched as he unwrapped a $55 Nerf gun, extra 'bullets', new shoes and a school bag with his favorite TV character on the front and a action figure inside. As he finished he looked me straight in the eyes and says, "That's great ma, but seriously what'd you get me?". FML

I heard on the radio the other day, while driving to work. That kids these days, between the ages of 6 and twelve I believe, want ipads and iPhones for birthdays and Christmas. When I was a kid, my parents could barely afford the nerf gun this kid got.

I totally agree! Those are to expensive for children that young!

I count my blessings when my son answers "whatever you like" when asked what he wants. His letter to Santa asked for time to bake cookies and have fun with his family.

Wow. You know what I wanted for my 8th birthday? A parakeet. Little jerk.

"Ok then... time for birthday spankings!"

What a little brat! You know what I got for my 8th birthday? Chocolate. And I was the happiest damn kid in the world. Don't get him anything next year, and when he asks why, tell him he's already spoiled rotten. Any more spoiling and he'll shrivel up and disappear.

That's when you slap him eight times :)

He's a ungrateful and spoiled little brat! This Christmas don't get him anything, he will ask why he didn't get any presents, and you can reply with:“ Son, you were not very nice before Christmas so that's why you haven't received any gifts, or a stocking.”

You should of took it all back and bought him a coloring book.# be grateful

You do need to make the pound sign touch the word you want to "hash tag", you know...

You couldn't kill a Smurf with a Nerf. What he really wanted was an official Red Rider Carbine Action Two-Hundred-Shot Range Model Air Rifle.

you can put an eye out with that

That's a movie reference... Very smart idea! I applaud you for using that reference to a Christmas story... I think...

Doesn't give him an excuse to be an ungrateful twat.
