What's the most expensive thing you broke as a kid and what's the story behind it?
Mine was our CRT TV. I would rapidly push the power button on and off because I thought the picture coming and going looked cool but eventually it fell inside of the TV. I think I later stuck a magnet on the TV.

In grade 2 I burnt down a shed causing $2000 damage in the 1970's. (Around $10,000 in todays money)
I was playing in the shed and decided I wanted to build a fireplace... out of wood. (In my defense it was a type of laminate, so I didn't know it was wood at the time.)
I nearly did something similar. My friend and I found a lighter and didn't want to get in trouble for burning stuff so we did it under his porch.
How old were you in grade 2?
If it’s anything like here (Canada), it’d be around 7-8yo.
Yup, and this was here in Canada.
