Would you say anything

[DancingQueen2018]

DD (8) has a friend over. Just putting stuff away in her bag (school clothes)and I found a couple of DDs things in there - not things she would have given away. Shoukd I say anything to her mum, we're very good friends, but I just can't think how to!

Take them out.
And tell the friend you did so.
Don't let your dd have her things stolen.

Hmmmmm, id remove them but probably wouldn't say anything at this time. The girl will know they're missing from her bag when she gets home.
Or I'd maybe breezily say to the girl that some things obviously accidentally ended up in her bag but you've taken them out.

Ooops posted too soon.

That was she knows you've seen them and should hopefully stop her behaviour.
If it ever happened again though I would raise it with her mum

I wouldn't mention anything to your friend this time. But I would say to the girl, breezily, as how funny it is that DD's things had accidentally ended up in her bag... you kindly took them out for her.

She'll know you know. Hopefully that will be enough of a deterrent.

Exactly what MrsJane said.

I would obviously remove them and mention that you took them out to the daughter. Not in an accusatory way but, to make sure she knows you have seen them.

Then I would mention it too the mum.
