Three cheers for you Grandma. I was never fast enough to find a fair and reasoniable solution to these kinds of problems. What the boy did definitely needed a form of punishment. Yours was fair and done with love.

The only regret I have as a parent is that I didn't do this very thing myself!!!! Now we live with the result. I kick myself every day. Good job. I hope the parents are with you on this because everyone should be responsible for raising children. Mixed messages don't help at all. The best answer was also that you do it with love- not anger!

I too, think you did the right thing. Children need to know that when they make choices, they must pay the concequences, good or bad. It teaches them the value of money, and also teaches them the value of choice
