You can say what you want, Miss Understood, but it is like Worldwalker and almost everybody else here said.
Gift cards have their value clearly written all over them. Period. Even if it were not stated on the card, it would have bought her no more than 50$ worth. Her mother would have known anyway she spent 50$ on her. So why is the second card so much of a problem?
So this was a problem for the whole family. It was discussed (obviously between the parents and) between father and daughter. None of us has a family where this would have been a problem, as everyone here stated also very clearly.
And I should add, I guess the strange behaviour of the parents is why she is so greedy to try to press a 50$ gift card as an "apology" from Kobo. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
I don't know why any of these observations is rude as the facts were provided by Unicorn happily as long as she thought we'd cry out on her behalf and attack Kobo. Which just didn't happen.
If you have any emotions to spare, Miss Understood, you should have pity with Unicorn. The life of a grown up led in greed and fear of her parents can not be a happy life.
