A Saudi father has offered his daughter a car and gold bangles after she completed her elementary school education.

Saudi daily Al Madinah reported that the father was keen on expressing his happiness for the “graduation” of his daughter Jenna.

A picture of Jenna standing on the car seat went viral on social media, prompting a wide variety of comments.

The concept of gifts, regardless of how lavish they may be, is a strong feature of the Saudi and Gulf societies in general.
