The problem (IMHO) is when I was The Boys age I saved up for months to buy complex electronics (a cassette recorder) and it meant the world to me - I had it for years...

When Miss Piggy was growing up she just expected it to be provided (like all the other kids did) and it held no value to her - consequently, she was always losing or breaking Sony Walkmans or whatever...
