But let's be real, is it really necessary to give a 19-year-old a brand new car? What's the lesson here? Does it teach hard work and responsibility, or entitlement?”

@IamSopuruchi commented: “I didn’t see anything bad in gifting, but there are level to some gifts, gifting a boy of 19 car is way bad idea and bigger than his age I think he should be more focus on equipping his education rather than car that will expose him to wayward lifestyle and excess women. No shade”
