I have no doubt he'll be responsible with his new F-22 as well. I know it's a lot of power to handle, but since my kid is so much more responsible and mature than other kids, and since he's worked so hard and achieved so much, I think he deserves something nice and since I can afford it, who's place is it to judge?

Sure, we've all heard stories about irresponsible kids wrapping their F-22's around sky scrapers and killing themselves, but I know that will never happen to my kid, because he's so much more responsible and hard working than other kids.

He's over at the F-22 forum right now letting others know about this wonderful gift he's worked so hard to earn. Check out his thread "Are there any other 16 year olds on here with a new F-22?" He'll be uploading pics as soon as his laptop gets fixed.
