Seriously $400 Lego set for an 8 year old?

Why do we rush to judge what any parent is willing to do for their child. Now if the set was bought to keep ahead of the Jones, well........... that's still their right. You can't control what others do for their kids, only the way you raise your own.

Very true. Sorry if I offended you. I should probably learn to keep my mouth shut. I was being gossipy.

Kathryn, . . funny enough I like them more than my son does. I ALWAYS end up putting them together for him. Then they fall apart and he gets frustrated. He does not have the best fine motor skills.
VW beetle sounds soooo neat!!! I actually wanted the Eiffel Tower one . . . .

I'll send you pix of the finished projects. The VW is completed; the Taj is going to take a few more weeks. These things have been great for DS's fine-motor skills. And for a kid with focus issues, he sure is able to focus on these projects!

Now if he could only focus on that homework....
