#people #money #gift #teenagers
Nowadays, there is a trend of giving presentations to youngsters. Some of them gave
money
 and others gave any type of accessories they want. In
this
 essay, we discuss about the viewpoints of giving gifts of
money
 or other things. On the one hand,
money
 is the perfect
gift
 for the teenagers. Because when he/she got
money
 as a
gift
 he/she can buy anything which they like. When we decide to buy a present for anyone, we just confused of their likes and dislikes. So by giving
money
, we can avoid the confusion.
Furthermore
, the adults do not know the modern trends. So they buy unusual things for the receiver. It is very difficult to buy accessories for teenagers like clothes, electronic gadgets, books, bags, shoes etc.
Therefore
 giving
money
 is better than unnecessary things.
On the other hand
, rather than
money
 giving useful items will be worth more. Because the teenagers will mess with their
money
 by involving in bad activities like indulging alcohol, using drugs, gambling, spend
money
 on buying cigarettes etc. It leads to lack of concentration in their studies. So
money
 makes them imperfect, because they didn't have enough maturity in spending
money
.
Moreover
, provide some useful things that might have important to their life. It will be remembered for life long.
For instance
,
such
 as I got a watch from my sister on my childhood days. Even it is not working now, but I kept it in my
gift
 box as a remembrance of my 8th birthday
gift
. So valuable things will be more remembered than
money
. In conclusion, I believe that other things than
money
 will be the perfect
gift
 for teenagers. Because a presentation will not be expensive or whether it is useful or not. It depends on the value of the person who gifted. By giving
money
 is not a good way for the
gift
 because it has more demerits than benefits when it is given to a teenager.
