Allow me to give another point of view..

I say you fix all the damage, replace the parts, give your daughter a kiss on the forehead and teach her the oldest lesson in life, "shit happens"...

After all, she's in college, working to get good grades and spending her spare time trying to make some bucks to keep her head a float.

I was in a couple small accidents when I was young and my dads philosophy was, accidents happen and he didn't want me to worry about it. As long as I wasn't being blatantly stupid: drunk driving, driving reckless, etc. He was always just happy I wasn't hurt and took care of it. He didn't want me burdened while I was struggling to make grades, etc.

So while I understand you trying to instill a sense of value into your daughter, I say, give the kid a break. If she wasn't in college or didn't seem to have any sense of responsibility I would argue differently...

Pay for it all, tell your daughter you want nothing less than a B on her report card for the next semester and move on...

B
