Parents Struggle with Fairness After Son Breaks 3 Laptops in 4 Years

Every parent faces tough decisions, and this one is no exception. When a parent’s kids are of similar ages, it can be difficult to decide how to treat them fairly when one has been more careless with their personal items than the other.

Recently, a parent posted in the subreddit “amitheas*hole,” a very popular community on Reddit , to ask if it was unfair to get their 17-year-old daughter a better laptop than their 17-year-old son after her laptop was ruined by an accident.

Parents struggle to find a fair solution after their son breaks 3 laptops in 4 years!

Having two teenage children can be difficult. They can be prone to accidents, especially with electronics. This was the case for one parent, whose son broke three laptops in four years. To avoid another incident, the parent decided to get a used laptop for the son, while replacing the daughter’s laptop with a more expensive one, after it was damaged in an accident.

The son, however, felt that this was unfair and accused the parent of picking favorites. The parent argued that the son had broken three laptops and that money doesn’t grow on trees. Is the parent in the wrong or was the son overreacting?

With this in mind, let’s look at the comments and reactions to the post from the community.
