Its true, they are. My kids could not play with a toy and literally not give a shit about it for months or YEARS but if one sees the other touch it or sees me attempt to throw it away they have a desperate meltdown in attempt to keep their treasure. Why?! Do you want my house to be in a constant state of clutter and embarrassment? Do you think that broken buzz lightyear is going to come back to life, repair his smashed arm and save the universe? No. neither of those things are going to happen.
How do people keep their homes looking like adults live in them? Am I the only one lost amongst a sea of Cars and Littlest Pet shops? Will I regain my kingdom and once again reign supreme??
Well, that problem was solved for me when the kids were little and I had a puppy. I told them each toy the puppy got and chewed I would toss. I did. They kept the toys in their rooms lol... we have a rule...no toys downstairs =)
