While many 11-year-olds receive the latest gadgets, toys and balloons marked ‘Congrats’ as graduation gifts, Montego Bay businessman Romar Pearson wanted something different for his daughter graduating primary school - so he bought her a car.
Pearson told THE STAR that his daughter, Karakay, 11, has been under his care since she was three months old.
“Me realise she is going to graduate and children been troubling her saying she don't have any mother and don't have anybody. So I tell her ‘Don't worry, when you a graduate, your things going to be different from everyone’,” Pearson explained, adding that he is motivated to buy all of his six children big gifts. Pearson admitted that parenting has not always been easy but he strives to ensure his children are financially set and have opportunities he never had.
