Did anyone else pick up that Josh, although he was being very polite and always saying thank you, actually wasn’t that excited about his presents. The games controller he said was almost the same as one he already had, one of the clothes items he mentioned something similar “that’s another one”, and one of the video games James already had a copy so wouldn’t be new to him if he’d already played it, the headphones were similar to a set he already owned that were faulty, and sure they were nice, probably overpriced, trainers but I expect he needs new casual shoes fairly regularly as a growing boy anyway.
If several of the boys are gamers, Xbox and of, which both use the standard Xbox controllers, they likely have a few controllers in the house already, even josh said it was basically the same as the one he already had…how many of these controllers can he play with at once?
A lovely well mannered boy, but to me it just seems like Sue seems to just buys the older boys very similar stuff, without thinking if any of then want to need anything else. I could have put money on it pre-opening that it would be branded sports clothe//shoes and something related to video gaming. At one of the Xmas vlogs there were multiple sets of gaming headsets presented to the older boys, and yes these are things they might use and enjoy….but the predictable nature of the gifts make me think it’s just ‘older boys’ gifts that Sue buys…as if she doesn’t know them individually well enough to distinguish what each boy likes in particular.
