Sure it's wrong, but I saw a story on this on an actual news site, which seems a bit ridiculous to me. As a child, I don't know how many times I opened a box that contained a bottle of old shaving cream or something similar as a prank. The XBOX is probably laying around the house somewhere anyways, it's not like there are empty 360 boxes one can buy at stores.

Welcome to a month ago.
I guarantee he never tries to sneak a peak at his presents early again. -

I just don't feel like bringing up the old thread. Someone might.
Anyway, none of us know all of the details behind this so making judgments about the kids/parents is pretty stupid.Comment

Re: Parents trick kid into thinking he got an XBOX...
You don't have to go far to dig it up. It's on the first page just a few threads below this one.
And that's not including the original original thread about this that's in OS Neighborhood from a month ago."It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace
"You'll not find more penny-wise/pound-foolish behavior than in Major League Baseball." - Rob NeyerComment
