[quote=Anonymous]I wouldn’t go to the other person’s parents. However, I wouldn’t replace the computer for my child either. My kids know if they lose/ruin something it’s own them to replace it. What does your child want to do? My thought is if your child was treating the computer as if they would have to replace it and the roommate ruined it, they would either be upset if their friend didn’t offer to pay for some of it and may not want to room with them or they would make the decision that they were fine working extra/sacrificing to buy a new computer while their friend that messed up the computer did nothing. Either way, they are both making the decision and living with the consequences even if they make a decision different than what I would decide. And if they were partially to blame for leaving the computer where it shouldn’t have been, they should be working to pay for it in that case as well.[/quote]
