ok, the former baby sitter claims that my sons stuffed toys in her husband's. they were not in the room watching my sons while they supposedly did this. also, they were also watching another 3 year old at the time. the playstation was not put out of my children's reach...she admitted that she piled clothes and a book on top of it and my sons happened to find it. sad twist to this? he's a cop and where i live, cops and government officials stick with each other. should i have to pay for it?
Answers:
I would not only not pay for the PlayStation, I would write a letter to her rebuking her inattentiveness in supervising your children, and possibly endangering their lives.
What if, by stuffing the PS with toys, it started a fire?
She allowed the PS to be accessible to the children. She did not properly babysit the children. Therefore, her negligence was responsible for the damage to the PS.
If you send to her a stern letter, I'm sure she will drop the issue.
i would sue
I don't think you should have to pay for the playstation because if they were really watching your son it wouldn't have happened. So if they really wanted to get into to it you can get them in trouble for child neglect for not watching your son.
No, you shouldn't pay for it. Had they taken better care of the playstation, it wouldn't be broken. Also, if they had taken better care of the children, the children wouldn't have played with the playstation. You shouldn't pay for it. If it was that important to them, it would have been taken care of.
no... it's their fault you should sue!lol good luck and god bless
I would say morally you are obligated to pay for it. You are responsible for your children's behavior even when you are not around.
If its a PS1, then bite thet bullet and get a new one for about 30 bucks. If its a PS2 then it will be up to you figure a fair amount of reimbursment. If its a PS3, ouch! thats going to cost you a lot of dough. Maybe some kind of payment plan or something else, who knows, my question to you is what happened to the playststion in detail? Did it overheat, break apart, or wind up unusable some how? Maybe its still under warranty? In the end a fine machine was the victim of your in ability to babysit.
You shouldn't have to pay for it. These people were actually responsible for watching your children. The key word is responsible. As a matter of fact, your children could have been hurt if the toy had fallen on them, or worse yet, they could have been electrocuted if it was plugged in. Sadly, the reality is that even if you are justified in not having to pay, you may regret not paying for it. If you live in a town where all the authorities stick together, they may make your life very difficult. I've experienced this. So unfortunately, the question may be: Do you want to be right, or do you want to be happy?
