I got an email last night by a 9 year old who wanted to give his toys to anyone who could use them. He said they were all in Like new condition and that he didnt use them anymore and wanted to give them away to anyone who could use them. It really touched my heart when I read this. Are your children/child like this little boy? If so please explain what he/she has done? Take care and Happy posting

That's just sweet! I wish most children would be like him. Children are usually possessive of what they have but this kid is remarkable. I think children who are raised in a very generous and caring environment will turn out like this. We can always set the example.

My son is only five and I wished he was more giving. He has lots of stuffed toys that he doesn't realy play with anymore and I have asked if I could give some away and he refuses to depart with them. I think he has almost 25-30 stuffed toys LOL BIG and small.

He must be an angel! After hearing so many stories about wild teenagers, I'm glad there are still good kids. Let's hope he becomes president some day.

Oh what a sweety! My kids are too little to be like that but hopefully they will be. Did the little guy donate them to toys for tots or another organization?

Kind of its a site we have over here in Hamilton Ontario called Recycle and what it is instead of getting rid of things you no longer want or need this site gives anyone a chance to ask for the item (s) I have gotten so much things for the kids off this site and also give back =) But this is what the little boy said word for word: Hi.I am 9 years old. I have some toys that I hardly played with and that I don't use anymore. I would like to give them to some young boys who will be getting hardly any other toys for Christmas. Amazing =) Thank you for sharing and your response =) Stacy

I always encourage my daughter to give away toys that she doesn't play with, to charity shops or send them to my friend's daughter back in Ukraine where I was born. Last time when we went shopping she looked at the toys for babies and said 'Mummy do you think baby Anastasia would like this? Don't buy any sweeties we better buy baby Anastasia cuddly crocodile I would love that when I was a baby'.

These are future men who will change the world for the good of all. He is selfless and at his tender age, he now realizes that there are inequalities in life, there those who have and the have nots, he is trying to bridge the gap betwen the haves and the have nots and that makes him very humanly sweet!
