When six-year-old Caitlin asked her mum if she could check Amazon to see when the Barbie she had been allowed to order for her birthday was being delivered, her mum agreed without a second thought.
Then the delivery truck rocked up to their Utah home and, oh. It turns out Caitlin should not have been left unattended.
In a tweet Caitlin’s older cousin wrote “My badass little cousin ordered $300 worth of toys w/o my aunt & uncle knowing. This is a picture of how everyone found out,” alongside a photo on Caitlin looking completely smug next to a tower of boxes.

I think that ALL of the toys should have been sent back, as a lesson had to be learned by that child for stealing money. However, I suspect the child saw her parents ordering from Amazon before and thought it was fine to add to the current order without asking. Nowadays kids get time-out and loss of privileges for bad behaviour, but in my day I would have received an ass-whooping if I pulled that kind of stunt!!
There is an update to this, which is impressive and commendable. That little princess donated all of the toys to the children's hospital where she stayed when she was a baby.
Likely because that was cheaper than sending the merchandise back. Parents hardly got a choice - couldn't let the "little princess" keep the toys, too expensive to pay for postage back to Amazon, so count your losses and donate it. I doubt it was an idea the child dreamt up herself.
So you are saying, you buy stuff, you realize its expensive and don't want to keep it with you, again you realize its expensive to return, so you go donate it to charity. Nice, logic there.
BTW, you don't know that girl, I don't know that girl. But I like to believe that she truly donated some of her toys. You may believe what ever suits you. I see how your logic works ;) .
