A parent asked the r/Daddit forum for stories about the highest costs incurred due to their children. One parent shared a $7,800 bill for excavation after his son dropped rocks into a sewer cap. Other parents contributed tales of damage caused by their kids, including a story where a child's five minutes of unsupervised play resulted in €15,000 worth of paint damage to multiple cars. This reflects the unforeseen financial burdens of parenting that can arise from children's actions.
"Last year's summer vacation - our 3-year-old got five minutes without surveillance when we were putting our baggage in the house, and there was a small playground... Sadly, there were some colorful stones lying around, and he took them to do a superquick drawing session on several parking cars. 15,000€ damage on the paint of five cars in fucking 5 minutes."
"We had to get an excavator out and dig up the whole line. It was packed with hundreds of rocks. All shapes and sizes. Total bill around $7,800."
