[quote=Anonymous]Without knowing the situation(and I am not asking OP), I think your goal is to make your child understand how long it takes your family to save $7000. Even if you can afford it, and assuming the damage is not covered by insurance, I would implement a plan to make up that money with his help. Perhaps it's mowing your lawn or cleaning out the garage. Make a plan with him and lay out your expectations (no whining etc). With that said, everyone has accidents and makes mistakes,but how they handle those mistakes proves their maturity. [/quote]
