I can imagine the younger kids being little brats in school, bragging about all the stuff they get. It must go down like a lead balloon with the other families in such a working class area.
It reminds me of a girl in our school whose dad bought her anything she wanted. I was so envious when she was the first kid in school to get a walkman. We found out later that her dad was a wealthy businessman who'd left his wife and daughter when she was a baby for a life of yachts and dolly birds and she didn't even remember her father. He just kept in contact by phone and sent her whatever she needed out if guilt.
