"I like how you made her save for what she wanted, it teaches her responsibilities and always the importance of saving. I’m gonna start doing that with my daughter rather than just buying for her."

Tlaki❤ said:

:Guys the point isn't that they added to her money to buy the iPad, the point is that she locked in and saved her little money at her little age. Wouldn't you be like 'What the heck, might as well buy it for her' after she did that? That's discipline ❤️"

eyeshah added:

"The fact that she showed the initiative to save was enough. She doesn’t have to know that they added money, but she will be motivated to save when she really knows the value of the rand."
