Finally, this netizen believed the boy felt very relaxed while lying down and watching TV like that.


The kid was enjoying his free time


Understandably, staying with his parents might have bored him to death, so perhaps he had needed something fun to do, in order to combat boredom as a kid. We’re glad that he found a way to enjoy his day nonetheless.

Maybe one day in the distant future – he might be able to afford a television of his own.
