What she was going through seemed fairly typical for a teenage girl. I'd say he was WAY overblowing this.
Meh, it was a second offense. She had the chance to learn her lesson.
I would never MAKE my high-school aged kid get a job during the school year, and I would still give them a modest allowance for doing their chores (like maybe $20 a week), but I would definitely tell them that if they want luxury items beyond what they can save up for that way and with birthdays and Christmas that it's on them to find a way to pay for them.
