Leaving secondary school and taking the final exams
is a really big deal. Our parents often
celebrate it by
giving us cool presents. My parents said they would
buy me a new tablet if I got into university. So, I've
been working really hard for the past two years! Then
some kids in our school started a campaign. They
want to persuade parents that instead of buying us
expensive school-leaving presents, they should donate
the money to charities. Is it fair that I should give up on
my well-eamed reward? WII just seem selfish if I say
anything?

I don’t think that accepting the present from your parents is selfish. They want to present a gift to you personally for your efforts in studies. You buy yourself things, clothes, without any regards to what you could spend this money on charity. A tablet is not only a toy, but also a useful thing for study, it will definitely come in handy at the university. When you graduate from university and start earning your own money, you can donate much more to charity. I think everyone has the right to make his own decision.
