A 15-year-old girl received an amazing gift from her boyfriend to honor their one-year dating anniversary in a lovely display of adolescent love.
The generous gift, a 50-inch Roku TV, has sparked a heated debate among netizens about whether such a luxury present for teens is suitable.
The lucky recipient’s elder sister, who goes by the Twitter handle @lulnille, rushed to social media to spread the news of her romantic surprise.
@lulnille conveyed her surprise and excitement over the unexpected gift by posting a photo of the magnificent flat-screen television.
She wrote;
“Mind yall my lil sister is 15 and her boyfriend came through with a 50-inch Roku TV for their 1-yr anniversary.”
However, the announcement stirred a diverse range of reactions from online users, with some questioning the young couple’s relationship dynamics and whether a 15-year-old should be involved in a romantic relationship at all.
Concerns were also raised about the appropriateness of such an extravagant gift for individuals of their age.

@Asanele20729203 said; “Is a 15 year old not under age, for dating. 1 year anniversary that means she started dating at 14. Time have changed.”
@thatYORUBAneega said; “The TV goes for less than $250. coulda worked for it, coulda stolen for it, they spend more on sneakers in the US. so I get him being able to afford it. what’s weird is being cool with a 14yo having a bf, and being fine with her bf doing this. how old is he?
