    That's bad parenting, I knew what credit cards and debit cards were and that it was real money, even when you use it online. I was told at a very young age that TANSTAAFL. While I never got the credit cards/debit cards or took any money without asking, if I did, there wouldn't be any situation, because I knew that it was real money.

    While it is his own fault, the fact that this is so easily done is really a shot at game companies, especially those that make mobile games.

    Ah yes, because I want to get suspended and kicked out and not allowed to be in AP or Concurrent Enrollment classes ever again, I also want a bad recommendation and the school to tell the colleges I apply to that I'm a terrible person who questions authority. It annoys the hell out of me.

    She used a phone. Like "Send FLAFLA to 12345678 and get KLUKKLAK! every text costs 5$". Not the same as credit cards

    Ohhhh, well, I guess that's partially the gaming companies fault, still a little of the fathers fault as well, for allowing her to use his phone. The gaming company should still be decent people and refund them, though.

    Defo. 10,000 DKK is a lot, and everybody can tell that they weren't spent on purpose. But the father is an idiot

    I may have misunderstood the original statement. I thought we were talking mobile games that have the store built-in that sell stupid shit. Those are what I have problems with. It's such a bullshit business plan, and the amount of times I've heard stories of people getting overcharged/accidentally charged through those stores and nothing is being done makes me assume that most companies plan for it to happen.

    This is why our examinations are done by external exam board companies. It gets rid of teacher bias and stuff.

    Sucks to be you.

    I think that's what it is, but people should read what they agree to. And because it is bullshit, I would never play such a game. People should know better.

    I think we can conclude that stupidity is alive and businesses shaft their customers. Of course, that's less of a conclusion and more of common knowledge.
