As long as we are on the subject I think its all fine and dandy when someone works hard enough at an honest and ethical job to earn enough money to buy the toys they want.

When someone just mooches off their parents or other 'family' for toys that most working people can't afford, thats pretty lame.

As much as I may be tempted to spoil my own child, the most she will get from me until she can make her own money are the basics (i.e. clothes, tv, radio, ~$2500 beater automobile).
