Tenant's kid painted walls

I had a tenant who lived in a house for 6 years (i've owned it for 2) and painted a few walls in to almost black.  His 5 yr old daughter "painted" doors and a few walls in her bedroom and the master bedroom a splotchy red.  Other than those areas, the paint looked good enough to not be painted for a new tenant.  What's the call on withholding a portion of the repainting expense from the deposit?

Thank you!
