(4,462 posts)First, the OP hid or stole the remote control as well as changing the password. That is not OK, even for a child.
Are you really claiming that since the password might be reset, and another remote or substitute purchased by her employer, that it excuses the behavior? Is it a general defense or only if one's actions are in response to Fox News?
I understand that you hate Fox (your name and avatar are certainly a giveaway), and you wish to mitigate the juvenille conduct of the OP, but I believe you know better. It's like telling a judge your not guilty of vandalism because it wasn't that difficult for the store to paint over the graffiti.
You can certainly hate Fox (I'm no fan) and still believe that the OP could have handled the situation in a far more mature and respectable manner.
