Yeah 0% chance the parent giving this away paid for any part of this. They are stealing from their child. You can tell because they would know how expensive all this was and not be willing to part with it for free if they paid for it.

Seems fake but idk the incentive for this? To get people’s phone numbers?

Scam or abusers, take your guess

MAJOR L father. Parents think this is proper types of punishment, however it just weakens and damages relationships between parents and children.

If it’s not a scam, the child is 100% the one that purchased it because they would not give it away if they knew how much it cost

Probably a scam. But if true, it’s definitely an awful parent. I imagine that doing something like that would have the opposite effect if anything.

if the parents bought it and the kid’s acting out, it’s not abuse to get rid of it. wild how people equate consequences with abuse so easily.

Was the son very handsome or something?

Certainly a scam, no parent worth their salt would give away a PC *they* probably spent a lot of money on for FREE.

Probably could reverse image search that pic and find it all over the place. Scam.

Either a scam or it’s time to alt+f4 the parents

I feel like if it was real, the dad wouldn’t have photographed the insides of the pc like that. Instead the photo would show the pc from the outside with a fisheye perspective as parents are mostly bad at taking photos…

It is a scam. It seems to be getting popular with “give away as punishment”.

She’s giving away a computer but losing the love of a son.

It has “my uncle works at Nintendo” vibes written all over it.
