back story- we went to GOSH today with DD1 for her JIA appointment. I took day off and took both dds as DH had job interview. so after doctors we went for lunch.
we went to Brunswick and ate at Giraffe. DDs went and ran around. then we left after about 2 mins I asked DD2 where were her "doodoos" its a Roo from tescos. she panicked so she ran back.
she met a girl about 6/8 who had 1 on her scooter. DD2 and 1 asked can we have it back about 30s before I got there she said no. I told her it was my DD2s toy so we got it back. I asked her where the other one was and she said her brother had it in the closest shop. we all went in and found it.I asked him where he found it as we has lost it. his mum said "we'll finders keepers"
I felt like going ape shit. but said my DD2 had dropped/ briefly left it and I'm sorry but you can't just steal toys! especially as both children had tied the toy to their scooters like a toy on a lorry!
my DD2 is in a crying melt down as these toys are really important to her and even eBay has no replacements.
I'm sorry but it was within minutes. they a grubby toys. maybe I was frazzled but my Dd1 has to take chemo drugs now for the next 2 years and I was just told.
but AIBU to think you don't steal toys you put them to one side in case someone has dropped / forgotten them??
