My sister has an iPad Pro that she mainly uses for productive stuff but she does have a few games on it. My 4yo son saw her playing Grand Mountain Adventure on it and wanted to try, and he asked me and her if he could. We both said yes, so she gave him her iPad to play with for a bit.
We then decided to play FIFA together and got distracted. Definitely should've been paying attention to him more. He dropped the iPad onto tile and now the screen is totally fucked. The case she uses doesn't have the corners covered (wasn't a problem for her because she's careful with her devices), but I'm pretty sure he dropped it on a corner and fucked up the LCD. The screen isn't responsive at all despite it not being cracked.
It's a $1300 device. Sigh. I will be paying for all the repairs. Luckily my sister isn't too pissed
TLDR: 4 year old son damaged my sister's expensive iPad and I will pay for it. I can also foresee comments about him being an iPad kid and I'd like to say he doesn't have his own tablet
