Do your kids have toys that only they are alowed to play with?

 I swear I hate being a cunt but DAMN!! My son has not been able to play with his leapster for almost a yr. My niece broke the fucking thing and it wouldn't run on batteries but we figured out today it will with a power supply. SO we bought the power supply broke out the games. My niece was the last one to play with it and ALL the game cartridges are now MIA. I am so fucking pissed. I have now made it a rule that they are not allowed to play with his playstation and his leapster. I can't afford to replace shit every time they break or lose something of my son's. Do your kids have any toys that they aren't allowed to let anyone else play with? Or am I just being a royal bitch?

There are only two toys that I don't make my kiddos share; and those are their lovies.  They each have a stuffed animal from build a bear that they sleep with every night, and when they are having bad days they enjoy hauling them around with us.

can't think of a any off the top of my head.....doesn't sounds so bad but I don't do it, I guess I supervise(all kids) when they are playing like our wii.....we have a leapster too.....if a certain child doesn't play with a toy "nicely" or "correctly" then they don't get to play with it.......the others do.........but I don't think its wrong if you have toys you don't regularly have out....it seems a little mean, but I'm a big softy........

I do in home day care I have 5 children(2 are mine) in my house at once it would be stupid of me not to put expensive toys up.

My rule is if it has tiny pieces,alot of pieces or is expensive its put up.I have a LOCKED craft cabinet and it has playdough,markets paint in it.I have all the games,and mr potatoe head and trains in the top of the closet.I do not want lost pieces.We pulled down several games tonight and a train track all of which have thier original packaging and pieces,if they were not put up they would not have that.My children deserve to have thier toys.I do not expect them to share everything obviously however I wouldnt allow my child to use those toys in front of the others and not let them play.

If your going to make the playstation and leapster off limit then do but put them out of sight.

No,  I think of my nieces and nephews as if they were my kids.  I would never do anything to hurt their feelings.  They are just toys...  I can replace them.

There are several high dollar toys and toys that are just special to my children that others aren't allowed to play with.  However, I always make sure that those toys are put up if any company comes over.  That way there are no arguments about it.
