10 things 90s kids begged their parents for, that Gen Z will be shocked even existed

If you were an Indian kid growing up in the ’90s, childhood meant two things: adjusting the TV antenna and begging your parents for stuff they were absolutely convinced you did not need. Every request came with a lecture. Every “please” came with conditions. And every yes felt like winning a small lottery.Life was slower then. No Amazon. No smartphones. No instant anything. Which meant when you wanted something, you wanted it badly. And when your parents said no, that was usually the end of the discussion. Still, we tried. Constantly.Some of these things will sound ridiculous to Gen Z. Others will sound impossible. But for us, they were everything.
