My 13 year old loves riding his bike to school. two weeks ago we bought some lights for the bike (£16) and asked him to be very careful with them etc. Now the back one has gone missing. Possibly because he chucks the bike down on our front drive - have had a REALLY good look and it is nowhere to be found.
Do I just replace it automatically?? I'm cross about this as he's already been through 3 (cheap!) mobile phones since Jan this year ...
I know I'm being tight, but it would be so nice if he could learn some responsibility for looking after his possessions. His attitude when he was told it was missing was a shrug of the shoulders, and 'Mum - put my game back on!!!'
Any ideas?
