My life revolves around my kid. So ya. If it makes him happy to be in a car he loves and it fits the families needs, then why wouldn't I?
...because you're an adult who sees the bigger picture and don't have the lens of an 8 year old, but the focus of a man who's lived a few odd but hopefully even years?
I'm an adult that will do anything to make my kid happy. Maybe you don't understand that is the bigger picture.
Hotwheels is a thing.
I wanted a Ferrari growing up, dad had sense.
Well, not everyone can afford a Ferrari. I can afford a Cybertruck.
If my kid loved a Ferrari and I was in a position to buy it. Best believe I'm buying one.
Buy a real car, then weld some sheet metal panels to it. It will be 10x safer for your kid and they won't know the difference.
Step 1: Buy metal. Step 2: learn to weld. Step 3: nahhhh.
