[quote=Anonymous]Everyone makes mistakes. If not a pattern, I would not make her replace it. I recently heard about an adult who, in their budgeting for the year, includes a “s*** happens” line item to account for the occasional lost item, late fee, change fee, etc.. This seemed like an excellent strategy to acknowledge 1) no one is perfect and 2) there is a limit to how much you should be spending on this before it becomes an issue. I could see this being applied for kids, as well.[/quote]
