I did the same. I got tired of trying to explain that computers dont just break on their own, and that the sites she visits are often where she picked up the "junk" that continually killed it. So for graduation she got a new laptop. After she opened it, I handed her the paperwork (included a 3 year warranty), and told her to call them, not me. Problem solved!

Just hand her the OS CD and tell her to have fun! Reloading an OS, drivers, and all the apps will teach her a lesson.

Do you honestly think a teenager would take the time to read something like that? She refused to look at her owners manual for an entire week until she realized I was serious that I wasnt going to have anything to with her new one (less paying for it of course!).
