"Good/Bad Tamagotchis: - There is not such thing as a good/bad tamagotchi. I'm sorry folks but you are not really raising children and in real life, good or bad parenting doesn't gaurantee a good or bad child. A certain tamagotchi character does NOT indicate you have been a bad parent. For every person that says they get a tamagotchi by taking good care of it, there will be someone who has got the same character by not looking after their tama well."
