... I see what you're saying,twh,but I'm also trying to teach the lad a valuable lesson.Money talks,and if all else fails,he'll be a tad bit more responsible in the future,...if he knows it's gonna come out of his paycheck..This is the language these kids understand..if I were to absorb the cost for his mistake,he'll be more apt to screw up again,and just say,.."Oops, sorry Russ,it won't happen again,.." and expect just a little yelling from me and then it's over....No,this way he has to take responsibility for his actions,otherwise he knows he'll be paying for it...just some "child psychology" that works,..it did when I was coming up the ladder..
