AIBU to make a fuss?

[RedOrange21]

My child came out of school today upset that someone had taken something of his. It was a small, free toy so of no significant value but that doesn't change the principle. It seemed as though someone had taken it and a few boys were teasing him; he could have lost it but seems unlikely. Would you mention this to the teacher or is it just too minor? I'm not concerned about the toy but whether this is common behaviour towards my child in the classroom.

I'm a teacher, I'd say it is worth mentioning

I would mention the teasing.

On the toy itself though most schools will probably take the stance of don’t bring them to school in the first place

Are they allowed to have toys? They're not allowed at ours to avoid this kinda thing.

It was something decorative attached to his school bag so not exactly a toy to be specific. They all have them otherwise all the bags would look exactly the same.

Ex-teacher here. I'd say something!

I'd mention something. Even if you can't get the toy back, have the teacher nip that sort of thing in the bud.

yes mention it! The teasing isn't on and as others have said it's something that needs monitoring.

still distraught at whoever nicked my T Rex pin badge 38 years ago
