No good parent would come onto this forum sharing that their obese teen had this happen to them. It’s too specific to publicize.

She ruined merchandise she didn't own. It's totally reasonable that she paid for it. Unfortunate but fair.

My 15yo daughter is skinny due to a combo of genetics, a fast metabolism, and her sport. She has a small torso and long legs and really liked shopping at BM because everything fit her. At AE and JC Penney everything was baggy and didn't flatter her small torso. At Brandy she could find cute and affordable basic tops that were flattering and fitted. She watched the documentary and doesn't want to shop there anymore-which I completely understand- but it is hard to find affordable tees that aren't oversized. She also really liked how the pants and skirts were the waist size without being too long. My daughter got a Nike shirt online. The XS was $50, and the XL was $30 on sale. When we go to Ross/TJ Maxx the small clothes are hard to find but the larger sizes are abundant and usually on sale. Shopping for small clothing is hard, too. If stores like Torrid can exist, why can't people who are at the opposite end of the sizing spectrum also have stores where everything fits them?
She’s not the only very skinny teen and they manage to shop and find clothes. TJMaxx doesn’t get as many small sizes because they are popular in teen clothes. There are plenty of stores with XXS.

Read the history of the store and the owner. Go back and get a refund. If they refuse tell them you will write about your experience and also remind people not to shop there because the owner is a Hitler admirer whose top executives have been accused of drugging and raping young employees.
Plus their clothes are garbage.

At 17 you should know by looking at a piece of clothing if it will fit. What did she do keep shoving herself into it even when it was apparent it wouldn’t fit? Some common sense would go a long way.
Agreed. This was my first thought.

CEO Stephen Marsan is also a racist and anti-semite.

The owner is a pervert. Don't let them take pictures of your child in their clothes.

It sounds like you have a healthy attitude about weight, health, appearance. Just keep doing what you have been doing. She told you, you talked, she said she's ok. Unless you see evidence to the contrary, let her be ok.
And I know as a mom you are upset she went through that, I would be too. Hugs.
+1 so heartening to hear how you understand that it's most likely her genetic makeup. That kind of messaging from mom is so important. It probably is having some sort of impact but your positive reinforcement about it being the clothes (and not her) acts as a buffer. Good work. In the grand scheme of things, it sounds like she will be okay.

I worked at Altar'd State for a while. This happens with some regularity. We absolutely never made someone pay for the ripped garment and were as low key as possible in handling it so as to avoid too much embarrassment for the person . The fact that that is part of the post here -- that this girl supposedly had to pay for it -- makes me doubt the veracity here.

This whole thing sounds totally made up.
How did the employer watch your DD try it on? Why would she make your kid pay for it? that doesn’t make sense.
And your DD would know the store or her friends would tell her and no way a group of teen girls who I guarantee were giggling like crazy would tell her to pay but instead would tell her to hide it and then they would all leave the store.
