Popped round to my sister in laws last night with my wife.
Their 6 year old was sitting on the sofa with a laptop i asked who's is that and he replied it's mine and was bought as a present from my grandma.
It also has internet connection i wasn't impressed for 2 reasons the internet and why on earth a lappie for a 6 year old.
It gets worse he also has a wi,psp,ipod,ps2,mobile payg,there maybe more but every electric gadget it seems.
I get uptight with him as he's rude and arrogrant my wife tells me to shut up but i can't when i go off on one at his mother who says he plays with them all rolleyes
Im sorry but he's turning into a spoilt brat and i have to speak my mind and his mother just laughs.
I asked him what santas bringing him and he replied a xbox as i can't go online with the playstation.
Please tell me this isn't normal behaviour maybe it's my age (47) or it's the modern way.
There is a eighteen month brother who has just started walking miminking me as i have a go at the wi for the first and the mother thinks it's funny.
So you know this one's in for the same treatment.
Very difficult to buy presents for as he doesn't appear to play with 'normal'toys
Unimpressed uncle.

PS3 and X-box 360 seem to be missing from that list. How about an I-Phone?

A box to put everything in! Sorry!! I agree with you completely though.It's worrying.I teach 6 year olds and I can't believe what lots of them have at home.

A box with a large spring and boxing glove inside sounds good to me.

The internet at 6 is a bizarre prospect, he's probably going to get his first look at hardcore porn when he's about 8 when most of us had to wait a fair while longer before we could get our hands on a 3rd hand magazine or at best a shoddy quality video.

Anyway, from your description they all sounds like a rather unpleasant family so buy the little st the biggest, loudest drum set you can buy. That will at least piss his parents off for a few days. Make sure you drop it round personally so they can't say no.
