I am really sorry but unfortunately, I have to complain about your son's behaviour, today around 10 AM he damaged my car. Moving into more detail he was playing some games on the street and in one moment threw a stone and accidentally broke the front window of my car. It was a very serious crash

after
this
unpleasant accident. I hope it was an accident and the boy didn't do it on purpose. I don't want to cause you additional problems, but unfortunately, you will have to pay for your son's damages. I have already checked how much the new windows does it cost. It will be 400$ for the window and
