[quote=Anonymous]This is a charity, families that qualify for this are needy. Families in poverty are not going to improve their lot by buying brain drain toys like an x box. My elderly father grew up in post ww2 Europe and remembers the time he got a book as a Christmas present. He cried because he thought he could have gotten a toy in its place. His parents tried to explain to him that it was a great gift, later on he appreciated it and loved the book. As a society we are not going anywhere if we value tv sets more than books. I make it an effort to buy a book as a Xmas present every year. Sadly many in poverty spend their little resources on big screen tvs instead of something that could improve their lot [/quote]
