Now, it is almost impossible to get that money back and his father has made him work at a scooter repair shop to teach him a lesson and he might not get a use a smartphone anytime soon.
A SIM card is more than enough to spend all the money stored in your bank account and never give your primary smartphone to anyone, not even to your friend or children. Though its the teenager’s fault to spend lakhs of rupees on PUBG, parents should have been a little more careful. Yes, online learning is a new trend that does not mean you can give your children your smartphone. Get them a new smartphone or make sure to monitor the usage if you are sharing your own device. A smartphone is a blessing and also a curse and it depends on how one uses it. This is a real-life example of why parents should be extra cautious when giving their smartphone to children.
