Personally, if my kid got in a small wreck and the damage was minor I wouldn't even fix it. Valuable lesson for them to drive a car with a dented bumper or whatever.

Probably more concerned with fixing what the kid hit, not the car itself.

I filed a hail claim on my truck last year, State Farm said my rate wouldn’t go up. It did anyway. I filed a Hail Damage with SF a few years ago, No rate increase until recently

Accidents stay on your driving record five years for most insurance companies. A youthful driver with an at-fault accident could have your policy going up $100/month or more. I'm an independent agent and I've paid a couple fender-benders out of pocket. Saved money in the long run.

Why? I've handled things privately. It's simple math.
...and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. Gen. 1:28
