We just got our cc bill and the biggest shock! DS has had phone for almost 2 months and not used to his own itunes account. Just found he has spent £600 on in app purchases etc. He claims he thought he was using itunes cards and I sort of believe him + I've read elsewhere how easily this happens. We're trying to get Apple to take some responsibility but the point is that ds is acting as if he's being punished when he just made a mistake. Actually we haven't hit the roof but it's clearly not a small issue. Phone is confiscated and that is causing the victim behaviour. I am peacemaker between dad and DS - any advice on how to get DS to step up and accept that s**t happens and must take responsibility?
