For something that they "can't even tell the difference of", you sure can spend quite a bit of money! Even almost ~500$ on a ps3, look at you big spender! Just a random gift out of the blue like that! 500$ WOW. I wish you were my dad.

Yes, rules are actually very healthy for kids. But like I just said, irrational rules often become points of friction.

Wow, really? You are increadably nieve to think that this could not be a real situation. A guy goes out wanting to buy a gaming system for his kids, he's unsure what system to get, but he's heard the name PS a lot and thinks, "hmmm I bet my kids would like that." he gets to the store where an employee is graciouse enough to tell him tat a Wii might be the better choice, then explains why. The guy buys it. 

And who said anything about irrational rules? 

It's possible, I'll give you that. But it is obviously the least likely, anybody here can tell you that. We should ask Bug to get more info. That will solve this little arguement.

An irrational rule: I bought you this, you are going to be grateful and like it.

A good rule: Eat your vegetables.
