wildest realization that times really have changed. cousins from my line started getting married and having children. these new kids get showered with toys every family meeting. malai kasto achamma lagchha kina ni when i was young, we didnt have that. ma 21 ho aile and i have a brother 5 years older than me. we were definitely had enough but i remember only getting toys/games on dashain. hamro baba would take us and we could either get dress/clothes or a toy. dresses ta aru bela ni pauchha(eg birthday, bihe party) bhanera we always picked games like ludo, snake and ladder, chess, checkers and all. 2 ta barbie thyo hola ma sanga bacha ma. aile mero aafnai mamu le everytime bhetda kei na kei khelauna lagdinu hunchha, which is like once evry 2 weeks. this kid is not even 2 and he has so many things to play with plus toys dont come cheap nowadays 800-1000 ta minimum janchha for a doll or a truck. bacha haru ni kati khusiii hunchhan pheri kelauna dekhera cute. i am not jealous but its so shocking. hamile ta kasto care garthyo ni khelauna ko, baby harulai ta matlab nai chhaina ba. staircase mathi bata remote control car haru faldai hiddchhan. its not like my family has more money now than we did before, tei ni why do my parents spend freely aile when they had a clear rule with us. maybe GRANDparents vibes ayechhi esto hunchha ho?

Yes, that is true. Grandparents vibe is definitely true that is not quite same as being a parent.
its not good to compare generations, aba hamro pala ma esto thyo aile esto xa, you ever wondered afno bau haru ko pala ma kasto thyo hola?
i remember my father saying he used to play with mud,sticks and all
tmro time ma tmlai jati khelauna kindiyo ni k tha aru le ni tmle aile jasto sochirako xau testai sochirako hola

i can say for sure though “current generation is fucked “..

I used to buy my nephew lots of toys every time I visited but now I only bring snacks because I saw how ungrateful and spoilt kids are these days. Like you said they just break everything.
One semester we had a subject called ‘Design Project’. On the first day of that class we were asked to make something from Lego blocks on a random theme, for brainstorming.
My teammates all began to make something with it and I had no idea what to do with those blocks. I had never played (even held) with Lego blocks.
Just like you I also didn’t have many toys. Our toys were different, like dandi biyo, chungi, cycle ko tyre etc.
