well..i mark it up to lesson learned...
My daughter got to talk to the girlfriend tonight at football practice and asked her if her dad had any intentions on paying her for the bag the dog torn up. The daughter said, yeah, he said he was going to give you the money tonight. We waiting around after practice and when the father came off the football field the daugter said "daddy, are you going to give her the money for her bag" he didn't answer her and kept walking.
My daughter was upset but I think that this is a good ..but..hard lesson. Not everyone does what is right or what is expected. I haven't told her yet, but I am going to go to the mall this week and try to find her another bag.
Thanks for all the help everyone!! :O)
