A father is facing criticism from his wife for not allowing his younger sons to play with his eldest son’s PS5. Despite his son’s desire to play with the console, the father believes it’s fair for his eldest son to have the final say since he bought it with his own money. The father’s decision is based on the fact that his younger sons have a history of being clumsy and breaking things that are not theirs. His wife, on the other hand, feels that it’s not right for the eldest son to be selfish and not share with his siblings. What do you think ? Is the father being unfair or is he justified in his decision?
