"Unfortunately we can't use that car now so I'm having to take her and pick her up which isn't the best idea for anyone.
"Someone's been nasty, it was the only car to get damaged. Why should my mum who hasn't done anything now have to pay to fix her window?
"It's just heartbreaking. She's been at work all day and come back to deal with that."
