[quote=Anonymous]Just so you know, we as parents do care if our child loses a $200 coat. What if my kid went to look for his coat on a day when your child "borrowed" (stole) it? My child would assume that it was stole because it was not in the bin. In elementary school my son used to lose nice hoodies all the time. Our assumption became: if is a brand name (Nike, Adidas), he most likely won't find it ever again. Twice when volunteering in the lunchroom, where the lost and found was located, I saw a parent with their child looking for "nice" coats. I overheard the conversation, once in English and once in Spanish. In both situations both parent and child were not looking for a specific lost hoodie, but for a nice hoodie: "Look there's a Nike one, try it on". You are pretty much that parent if you allow your child to do this.[/quote]
