My kid would be:
She will return
All by herself 
And she would take a Dave Ramsey course on the weekends[/quote]

:roll:  :roll:  dramatic much

It doesn't sound like OP had a discussion with her DD about what's allowed and how to spend money. So I'd start there.

That's an interesting take.

How about the fact that this kid has zero money of her own and going into a store, automatically thinks $400 is a perfectly acceptable amount to spend. Sounds like she thinks it's Monopoly money.

It sounds like she was allowed to use the card for dinner, etc? The OP seemed to think spending $100 at Sephora would have been fine but spending $400 was way too much and I don’t see how the kid would have known that without being told. That’s a pretty fine line. [/quote]

Only a kid with zero concept of money would do this. That’s not most kids.[/quote]

+1
I based my answer on the fact that this kid is 16, only 2 years from legal adulthood. Maybe a parenting fail or the kid has impulse issues which means this Sephora trip is not the most important thing OP needs to take care of.
