Mindee taking toys home? Do you allow?

Feel like i have got myself into a losing battle with this one.

Mindee gets displined at our house but doesnt so much if any at home as they have told me so until she cant talk and understand (she is almost 2). She gets in a strop if she doesnt get her own way and wont often strop with me but will if her mum is coming to collect.

Her mum always says 'give him a toy to take to stop him having a strop otherwise my evening is awful as she sulks all night', today she went for a really big toy which is much loved by my own and it causes problems as my child wants to play with his toys and not get them taken home by mindee.

I know it isnt fair on mine when this is done and i wouldnt like it but the mum thinks it is ok (taking our toys home, always come back in the morning). When she wouldnt leave because i wouldnt give her the toys she started to strop and mum said 'did you take the toy away' and had to say yes because it goes upstairs with mine for play. Mindee got another one and almost went happily.

Advice please, think i want to stop the toys going but will feel belittled about it as it doesnt sound a big deal.
