How a family can be cruel like that to their own child is beyond me. Where is their humanity? If you can't afford the game, fine. But why do they trick the child, get his hopes up and laugh at him. His disappointment was amusing to them. What is so funny about a child's disappointment? Were they trying to teach him a lesson? The only thing they taught the child is that he can't trust his family and that his family finds being cruel to him amusing. Shame on them.
