Well, I am graduating from middle school and I got technically everything I want.
I got a laptop (since my school needs one), I got an iPod, an AMAZING digital camera, an AMAZING cellphone, a PSP...
I'm turning 14 this August and since I got some great grades for 8th Grade, my parents want to reward me by getting me something... Please, give me options to what I would like.. I won't give you a price range since I have none but have it reasonably priced.

how about a weekend getaway? with the family of course. or a day trip to someplace you've been wanting to see.maybe the lake, a theme park or a national forest. you're a very lucky kid.

Why don't you have them make a donation to a charity in your name? You already said you have pretty much everything you want! There are many children in your own school who cannot afford such extras. How about a computer to your school for a child who cannot afford one? By making a decision like this, you will show your parents that you are not selfish, but responsible and caring. Why is it that parents feel the need to continually award children for the stuff they should be doing anyway? Hope you take this to heart.

Give something to someone who needs it, the greatest gift is to give back and make a difference and keep standing out from the crowd and find the intrinsic value in sharing and spreading happiness and kindness or ask for some materialistic object and get bored months later and keep trying to satisfy the extrinsic rewards and you will find you are never satisfied and can never get enough. I can email my address heheheh for the gift joke!!!!! I just want happiness!
