It depends on the operating system running on the device. The non-Touch Kindle for example has a very good visible progress indicator. For some reason, it's not as good on the Touch version.
Whatever importance people attach to things is arbitrary. You shouldn't presume that a game is unimportant to your kid's life just because it is "just a game". You should discuss it with him/her and see for yourself how important it is for him/her.

e-readers use e-ink, which is for plain text only.
It's not suited for manga.
For manga, you need a tablet.
You seem to be implying that not everyone downloads ebooks illegally.
Local libraries are usually free for residents.
Just don't download any crap with DRM.
It's a standard micro-USB charger. You should have plenty of those. Good phones use the same cable.
8 weeks is "months", sorry.

Sure, though I'd suggest better methods of getting rid of it.
It doesn't matter if someone you don't know dies.
It does matter, however, if a friend gets his life ruined by going to prison.
There is already a word for that, acquaintances.
Even if my friends kill someone, I'll still support them.
That's what true friendship is about.
What nice friends those guys are, to send their friend to jail.
It is unreasonable as long as playing the game during the night is sufficiently important to the kid...

No, all it means it that you're completely clueless whenever foreign writing systems are concerned.
Sake is not good enough to justify this. It's like the hipsters talking about fancy vodka, no such thing exists.
Try wine instead.
I frequently relocate (usually from another country) whenever I'm getting a new job.
why have american sake in the first place?
If you're having sake, it's because you're in a japanese restaurant and you want exotism.
Using accents is a valid romanization.
Not using them is too.
It depends which romanization style you're using.
Whatever makes your kids unhappy to the point of making them poison you is clearly unreasonable.
What kind of consequences could the decisions of a child have?
It's not like they have responsibilities.
Paying for things is no excuse to disregard children and make them miserable.
