4. Nowadays many parents try to make their children happy by 
buying them many toys. How do you feel about this? 
Answer:
Generally speaking, it makes me feel good when I see that 
parents are buying their children many toys in order to make them 
happy because it helps create “good memories” in the minds of the 
children. Besides, the practice also helps create a stronger bond 
between the parents and their children. However, while the practice of 
buying many toys may seem to be an “innocent” act in isolation, parents 
would do good on their parts if they also care to teach their children 
sometimes not to get “mad or unhappy”, when they (the children) don’t 
receive something they really like, in order to help children understand 
the “realities” of life. 
5. Is it important for a child to have a lot of toys in order to be 
happy? 
Answer:
No, it is not important for a child to have a “lot” (because this 

---

is the “keyword” here) of toys in order to become happy as long as they 
are taught what it really means to be “happy”. If the children are taught 
that the “real happiness” lies in celebrating life and many of its 
occasions without receiving any “material” things in return, then the 
chances are that they wouldn’t exactly dig too much into the idea of 
receiving a “lot” of gifts to become happy. Besides, children are 
“innocent” minded, so if they are treated with genuine love and care, 
they wouldn’t really mind too much about the “number” of toys they are 
getting. 
6. What is more important for a child’s happiness, many toys or 
many friends? 
Answer:
A child needs both the toys and friends to become happy in 
his or her life, but they certainly don’t need “many” of either of them. 
Contrary to popular belief, I really like to think that children are 
“rational”, and they don’t exactly care to understand the complicated 
issue of “being happy”. Rather, all the children care is to “enjoy and 
have fun” in their lives whether they get them from playing with their 
friends or by playing with their toys.
