Do you think it is normal for a 4 yo boy to "steal"? Neighbor's 4yo son was playing with my 2 yo's small plastic toy. I heard his mom telling him not to put it in his pocket. Later, it was time for us to go home, I didn't see the toy and asked the 4 yo for it. I was pretty sure he had put it in his pocket, but he denied it, said he hadn't seen it, claimed to have given it to my DH earlier, etc. Eventually his mom intervened and he gave it back but w/o admitting that he had been hiding it. No punishment from his mother. Normal for a 4 yo? Or do I need to keep an extra eye on this sneaky kid? [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

^^as the mom of a boy who could of done something like this I can assure you that upon returning home I would have had a very long "discussion" with him about stealing. It would have been very inapporpriate to do this in front of you though. [ Reply | More

is it normal for a mom of a 4yo? dd had a playdate, and this little girl took dd's toy, her mom saw it, and while i was taking them to the elevator, the mom knew and purposefully kept looking in the other direction. and she knew that i knew since i looked at the toy, but prefered to have her dd have it. oh well, not a big deal [ Reply | More
