Boy, 5 years old, blew 100,000$ at shops

Is five too young to allow a child out shopping on his own? Little Djodja Markovic didn't think so, as he arranged to meet a gang of friends at a downtown Belgrade shopping mall.

Neither did the shopkeepers, as they gleefully served the five-year-old with clothes, toys, bicycles, sweets, computers and games to the value of £60,000.



Now Djodja is in serious trouble, not only for going out unaccompanied by a responsible adult but also for helping himself to over five-and-a-half million Serbian Dinars (about $104,000 U.S. dollars) from his father's safe.  - raisingkids
