Hi Leonard.  Sorry about your camera.  The same thing happened to my son who left his camera on the table and the baby pulled it off on the floor... broke the LCD.  Camera is now ready for the garbage.   But .......    It really depends on how much you paid for the camera because the repair is going t be at least 1/2 of the original price.  

If the camera still works and  you have a viewfinder to look through to frame your image before taking the shot...  just use it like that.  The image is going onto your memory card anyway... and that gets loaded to the computer...  so just use it for as long as its going to work.    One other suggestion... I would get one of those nice padded cases to store the camera in when it is not being used.

Thanks for reading.   Hug your little daughter.  She will pay you back in many other ways.   :))
