Dear Sir or Madam,
Presents are token of love,which leads in great bonding between relatives .some section of society believe , giving money to juveniles is best gift for them.However other oppose it .
Although many may see money as best gift as a positive phenomenon it is not a trend without drowbacks both merits and demerits.,will be discussed before a reasonable conclusion is reached.
The first and foremost advantage is that teenagers can use that money,which they recieve as gife according to their requirements for instance books , cloths , and so on .Moreover , due to this they can also know about the tactics to utilise the money without the aid of their parents the second benefit is that few children also initiate saving by that amount which they are given by parents and kith and kins so that they can use that savings in their future.
On the other hand it has Darkside too. First of all , juveniles are not mentally developed at this stage of life owing to if they are given money they can utilise those funds in an inappropriate ways such as for chocolate candies and so on which are not beneficial for their health apart from it due to this phenomena that children can start giving their preference to Money rather than relations.
After analysing both the views it can be said giving money as gift to offsprings is not detrimental effect on them, if parents teach them importance of money at early age.
