Good manners dicdate yes. Know how you feel
Yes, you are responsible.
Absolutely your responsibility!
Uhā¦ Someones kid came to our house to play beforeā¦ He Wasnt invited his older sister wasā¦ But the oarents had zero issues sending him on over too without even asking usā¦ He ended up āaccidentallyā killing one of our daughters hamsters when left unsupervised JUST long enough for me to go pee. When i came out he held it up to me SMILING AND SAYSā¦ UHMM I think I MURDERED (not killed. Heā¦an 8 yr old used the word MURDERED) savannahs (our girl) hamsterā¦it eas seizing out bleeding from its fucking eyes and nose!! I saidā¦ Uhā¦ WHAT did you do to it??? He LAUGHED and said oh i just bumped it witg my knee when it crawled down my leg. Frickin little PSYCHOPATH!! When i told his parentsā¦ Their response?? Oh noā¦ Hes ACCIDENTALLY KILLED 9. YESā¦ NINE OF OUR BABY PETS OVER THE LAST 2 YEARS THATS WHY HES NOT ALLOWED ALONE WITH THEM NOW. WE SHOULDāVE PROB TOLD YOU THAT!! WHAT IN THE SERIOUS F!CK!!! They acted like it wasnāt something they should be EXTREMELY WORRIED ABOUT. CLEARLY THIS KID IS LITERALLY A PSYCHOPATH AND NEEDS GOD DAMN HELP IMMEDIATELYā¦ BEFORE ITS ANOTHER DAMN CHILD HE āMURDERS BY ACCIDENT!!ā still to this day i cant shake HOW truly disturbing that situation was/is. And those kids have NEVER been allowed over to our house EVER AGAIN!!
Definitely your responsibility.
I always did.
Always.
Yess you are responsible
Depends on the situation
Yes your responsibility.
Uh, yes you are definitely responsible
It would depend on exactly what happened. With children, especially if an adult wasnāt around to actually witness the accident, I would chip in half, for the reason that it is my child, however, Iām not paying for the whole thing if the whole situation isnāt my kids fault. Shit happens sure, but unless you know for a fact that only your child caused it, then Iād only pay half. And I damn sure am not putting tons of money towards a brand new computer, itāll be whatever that computer was worth that was damaged.
Yes. You are responsible
Yes, you are responsible
These comments tho!! Yāall have way too much time on your hands. Lmao
Nope not ur responsibility
oh yes. he broke it he replaces
Seriously??? Yes youāre responsible!!!
Ummm the fuck?
I would never ask someone to do that.
Your kid was under MY supervision in MY home. I was definitely not raised to have my hand out like that lol
Definitely your responsibility.
Personally I think its shady. Why wernt they watching the children around their stuff that they care so much about? I wouldnt leave my shit out around kids, young or not. MY kids have been around plenty of laptops/computers and have always been careful and theyāre 3 and 5 but I still wouldnāt walk off and leave everything/them unsupervised . how did it get broken exactly ? I MAYBE would help with repairs but I wouldnt be buying em a whole new pc . lmfao tf
They needed to watch THEIR shit better and WATCH the children as THEY took that responsibility on when they wanted the kid there.!!
All these people saying the kid needs to take accountability: SO DOES THE ADULT. WHY WERNT THEY WATCHING THE KID(S) ??WHY WAS YOUR ELECTRONIC LEFT OUT WHERE IT COULD GET DAMAGED ??? The adult needs to be responsible for their own shit.Unresponsible Grown ass ! I
Said what I said.
Legally-no
Morally-yes
WAY to many questions unanswered before I can answer.
If my kid had a buddy sleepover and they were being boys and broke something I would never ever expect that parent to replace it! However! If my kid had his buddy over and buddy was being a little shit and fiddling with stuff he knows he shouldnāt be and it breaks them yes, Iād fully expect the parents to replace it
Wow Iām actually shocked
girl replace what your kid broke sweetheart just because they invited your child over dont mean shit they enjoy his presence your are still responsible as that child mom to teach him how to ACT esp when he goes over to people house .
Your responsibility for sure
Ehā¦I think thats on you.
I mean, if youāre not a complete asshole, then yeahā¦ You should replace it.
Unfortunately I would say yes
Most of these comments are ignorant and disgusting. You can give people your opinions and advice, without being total arrogant douchebags. With that being said, I would find out the WHOLE story, because nowdays adults lie to make it look like their children are innocent little angels, when theyāre demon spawns. Was it just your child or their children involved too? If it truly was just an accident, at least half or most. If your child broke it just being a little shit for the hell of it, then yes it is totally on you.
Ya! Your kid your problem!
You are absolutely responsible
Yes!!! like always we are responsible.
Yes id say your responsible
Yes you are responsible
Absolutely. Especially something like a computer. Shit happens, but if my child was responsible for breaking it, accident or not thats my responsibility.
Your kid your responsibility.
Of course itās your responsibility.
Your responsibility.
Your child your responsibility
Your child. Your responsibility
Yesssssssssss how is that even a question.
Yes youāre responsible!!!
Well a computer!? Was it crashing then happened to die as your kid was causing it sounds shady unless your kid purposely went and broke the thing I wouldnāt concern myself like u said where the fuck r the adults at?
is this for real?!?! lol
are you that dumb???
maybe keep your child home and teach him manners and responsibility
Similar situation with my daughter and her other side of her family I wanted my baby home didnāt ask anyone to keep her when something got broke a glass table or something idk and I received a call I said I wasnt paying for shit cause 1st off I didnāt ask for her to go yāall did and 2nd where was the adult at 3rd call her dad if anyone is going to pay for anything itās his side not minesā¦so if you donāt feel the need to pay I completely understand
Yes you are responsible.
Yes. Yes you are
Yes, youāre responsible.
I would feel responsible
Yes, most definitely
You are absolutely responsible!
Umm. I donāt know about the morals of it. But I aināt got it like that. It was nice knowing ya
Absolutely your responsibility.
Of course it is your responsibility.
Definitely your responsibility.
HAAA soā¦last week I had my nieces over. Ages 2 and 4, along with my own 2, age 6 and 11. The 2, 4 and 6 year olds destroyed the house 3 times over. A science ātoyā was damaged, my hematite ring was broken, my computer was broken, and paintā¦somehowā¦paint got all over the floor. Somehow food was opened and thereās corn nuts and cereal all over the floor whatever sticky substance is sporadically in places and I have no idae what it is. 2 cups were shattered and broken and I lost 3 books.
ā¦I didnāt ask for anything. I didnāt expect anything. I willlingly took them. And because they are my nieces, they are ALWAYS welcome hereā¦all of them were in time out at some point during the day multiple times.
But had it been someone else, I still dont think I would have asked, but I would have been cutting some ties if they didnāt offer to help in some way shape or form.
How was your child behaving in order to break a computer?? If my child broke it Iād take responsibility and replace it.
If your child definitely broke it, you should pay
How do you know it was your child alone they probably both did it.but blamed your child for it all.
Give them half if youāre unsure whether itās the truth or not only offer half
I would say no they should of been watching the kids
Offer to pay half the costs
Not enough information, how old is child? How exactly was computer broke? Was it intentional or an accidentā¦if the child is say five and the adult was allowing rough housingā¦and even encouraging it(anything from running, jumping on furniture, playing ball in the house) and did not set proper rules than it is the adult that was supervising that neglected to set rules and proper behavior. Now if the child is like 8 and threw something because they lost their temper in an environment where no one else was throwing thingsā¦then the parent of the child would be responsible for not reaching their child proper behavior. ā¦personally if I had a young child at my home I take responsibility of making sure my valuable items arent being compromised. And I expect my children to respect others homes.
Pay for your childās mistake.Make your child understand they will pay for their actions. In the future rethink sleepovers.!
Yea because you A. Should have taught your child better than to destroy someoneās property and B. It was your child so youāre responsible for the actions of your child.
If said child intentionally did it, then I would replace it, however accidents happen and it sucks. You live and learn. I personally wouldnāt leave anything out i didnāt want broken with kids around. My laptop isnāt laying around for my kids to step on, break, spill things on etc.
I think I would offer. Do you watch your child every second of the day? When you grab a basket of laundry from the laundry room or use the bathroom or cook supperā¦do you make your child follow along behind? When your child is playing with a friend, do you follow them room after room? Probably not. I donāt either. I think I would at least offer. They will probably say, ānah. Itās ok. Things happen.ā But I definitely wouldnāt feel right not offering at all.
Yes they should have been watching them but I would offer what I could to help replace it.
Imo it depends on the age of the child. If the kid is age 6-7 or older yes Iād be more for helping replace it bc by that age kids should know to not break things like a computer. But if we are talking about a 2 year old then no bc who would leave a computer in the reach of a toddler and expect it not to get broken.
I guess the BIG question isā¦ is how old the child isā¦ if they are old enough to know better to not touch shit. Then yeah you have to replace itā¦ if they are too little to knowā¦ then pay for half
I guess it depends on the situation. Are they demanding you pay for it? I wouldnāt expect someone to pay for a true accident especially if I was responsible for the child. If my 3 or 4 years old grabbed a computer it would certainly break so keep it away! If it was something my child did out of malice after being told to stay clear of something then thatās different. I donāt keep certain valuables near my children or other children when they come over because I canāt afford to replace these things!
Just pay for the damages YOUR child causedā¦its just common courtesy
Parents are responsible when their children break things, no matter what.
Youre responsible! No parent can possibly supervise 24 hrs a day. Maybe they left the room for a minute to tend to something and your child took the opportunity to get into something he shouldnāt have. You didnt really give context so im just assuming. If their child broke your property youd want it replaced. Dont put it on them to teach your child responsibility.
Absolutely. If you are in a tight spot then offer to pay half and explain that youd love to be able to pay it all to replace it bit that you canāt.
My one yr old constantly pulls out my sisters plants leaves ā¦ itās been going on she msgs me what she has done ā¦ but now Iām starting to wonder how can it even happen ! Where are you when sheās doing this ? Over and over
If it was something small like a vase, or picture frame, no way would I ask for that replacement.
But for a higher priced item (like a computer) especially right now when it might be needed for virtual learningā¦
I donāt think asking for help replacing it is outrageous.
Throw $50 their way and apologize. I wouldnāt buy a brand new computer, (thatās expensive) but, I would feel terrible if my kid broke someone elseās computer.
Of course, accidents happen, and thatās just the way life worksā¦ but thatās a very expensive object.
This question is whatās wrong with America todayā¦
K, but itās YOUR job to teach your children not to damage other peopleās property. & teach your children how to behave away from you.
Yes, youāre responsible.
Wow you are some relative or friend. Offer to replace it depending on childās age you should pay whole tab.
They asked for the kid to be there , they let him use it , they are responsible . Not you . I wouldnāt pay for it .
Yes I would. Would you allow their child over and if they broke your new tv would you blame the child and ask the parents to replace it or replace it your self. As you said a computer but it could have been a desktop. So. Not easily removable. In this case my advise is teach your child about respecting other peopleās property. And replace what was damaged.
Is there proof your child did it?
Definitely replace itās the right thing to do they could have been being watched but kids are sneaky and when your child breaks something it is your responsibility period I honestly donāt get why this is a question Iāve dealt with kids breaking my daughters stuff and I had to replace it itās wrong parents should teach there kids not to touch what doesnāt belong to them
IMO. I think it would be right to Atleast offer/ask to make things right. They may even tell you ādonāt worry about itā but just out of respect, just offer.
Of course you should pay doesnāt matter if it was an accident and they invited your son over.
Canāt believe someone had to ask that question your child your responsibility to replace!
Yes you are absolutely responsible for repairing or replacing the computer.
Iād look at it like thisā¦ had the shoe been on the other foot so to speak. If u had a kid over and they broke something valuable of urs? Would u want the parent to pay half or would u let it go n just take it as a lesson learndd.
you are responsible for your kids until they are 18 years old then they become adult
Nope. The adult in the house should have been watching your child, therefore not your fault. Plus if they didnāt want the child near it then noone should have been on it
What the hell is wrong with peopleā¦
this is what is wrong with folks nowā¦
if my kid breaks ANYTHING at someone elseās house accident or not ,i donātcare if they DID ask for my kid to come overā¦yes you pay for itā¦then your kid does extra chores to pay it offā¦or they do chores at the other personās houseā¦( or whatever they work out) or they use their own money birthday/ allowance/ Christmas or whatever to pay for damages.
This teaches them responsibility and accountability
And no they should NOT have to āput things upā or "hide it"till company leavesā¦its their damn houseā¦
teach YOUR kids not to touch other peopleās shit and to be mindful of what they are doing, especially at someone else house
I feel that they asked for your child to stay over, therefore they were responsible for watching your child. They should have watched him better. Now, had it been that you asked them to watch your child I could see offering to help pay to replace it.
Absolutely you are responsible!
Yes your responsibility. Teach your kid not to break things.
Yes. Definitely your responsibility. Assuming your child is the only one that broke it. Iād get more info from your kid.
No theyāre kids. Like you said they shouldāve been watching the kids. If I was in the other parents shoes there is no way Iād ask someone to pay that back because I wasnāt watching your kid good enough. If theyāre freaking out just pay them and cut ties.
I would pay half. Why? because the adults should have been watching him.
Itās definitely their responsibility their home their computerā¦kids shouldnāt have been around it to begin with if they were that worried about it
To me it depends on age of childā¦if child is 3 then no they should have been watching them and putting electronic stuff upā¦
If child is 7-8 then yes they should know better
