I understand that a 12 y/o would want everyone to give gifts to him but the parents are not helping this child but encouraging the child to feel entitled to gifts. If your BF wants or feels obliged to give this child a gift I would suggest buying a $50 savings bond that will cost $25 (less than what he was going to spend at bestbuy).
