Birthday Help
Posted: 08-21-07 23:06pm

My nephew is turning 12 on Friday and I have NO idea what to get him. He loves computer games, but I refuse to feed that bad habit....he's too young to stay locked in his room all day playing games. He likes skateboarding, but we got him a skateboard last year. He loves clothes, but has a lot. But with school coming up maybe he could use some new ones? Anyone have any ideas? He'd love a pet, but I'm afraid if I got him something he'd lose interest shortly after and then the animal would suffer from lack of attention....not to mention my mom would shoot me. Help!

That kinda depends on how much you're willing to spend. Do you have a ball park figure?

Honestly, the prepaid Visa or Mastercard gift cards are pretty awsome. And at his age he would probably feel like an adult if he got one. But that also depends on how responsible he would be.

Wow, that's a great idea! I never even thought about one of those. I'm sure he'd love that!
Thanks Christy

I couldn't come up with any good ideas but I also think those prepaid giftcards would be a great idea! I know when I was that age I would have loved something like that!

Tanya, I think the ones Christy is talking about are like an actual credit card...but you can't charge with it, if that makes sense. It's more like a debit card I guess, but once the money is spent, that's it. Unless you put more money on it....if you can do that. So I'm pretty sure you can buy stuff of the internet.
