CHILDREN TODAY TAKE MATERIAL CONFORT FOR GRANTED.
We have frequently heard that our parents’ past had been tough and difficult. In fact, children didn’t have most of technological devices that today are useful to entertain. For instance, computers and mobile phones.  Do children fully value what they have?  

To start with an example, at Christmas, they are usually lucky and get what they wanted. The majority of children have more than one present,  that could make them underestimate what they have. Actually, they can be fed up of playing to the same game all the time, but, they can play with another one. Some years ago that was not possible, as they had just one present if they were lucky.

Do today's&nbsp;children appreciate these devices? The majority of children&nbsp;get whatever they want&nbsp;at Christmas. Many receive&nbsp;more than one present and underestimate what they have. When they&nbsp;get tired of playing one computer game, they can play with their other ones. This&nbsp;was not possible years ago,&nbsp;as most children received&nbsp;just one present -- if they were lucky.&nbsp;
