It was explained . He ' s getting downvoted because he ' s doubling down on his erroneous initial assertion . <| sep |> Are you sure you aren ' t just a really bad caricature ? <| sep |> I can understand what you ' re saying . On one hand , I get it , I was the supervising adult SO was at work , I ' m off today . On the other hand , my own bio kids don ' t take their electronics to their dad ' s house . I ' ll let them take the toys I don ' t care about them losing or ones I hope they will never bring back . If they snuck their DS or whatever over with them , and it broke , I wouldn ' t be mad at their dad or expect him to replace it , I would just tell them they ' re out of luck and they should take responsibility for their belongings . When SO told BM she wasn ' t happy , blamed me . In order to keep the drama to a minimum , we offered to replace the screen . The iPad still works as it did prior , my husband says the outer screen is shattered , and that it ' s a cheap fix with a kit from Amazon . BM didn ' t find this acceptable . Then we offered to take it to the Apple Store this weekend and pay , still unacceptable . She demanded a brand new one , she even sent a link , and honestly I think that ' s crap . I guess I tried ?
