Sometimes moms and dads have a desire to tidy up the children's room.

They clean up, put things back in their places, and throw away some items.

Sometimes parents consider old toys that their child has long forgotten about to be “junk”.

As a result, dolls, cars, teddy bears, and construction set parts end up in the garbage chute.

And then it turns out that the baby actually needed these things. And the child begins to resent his parents.

Why You Shouldn't Throw Away Your Child's Toys

The thing is that a child may perceive such an act by a mother or father as a betrayal.

“You threw away my favorite toy!” the child will declare.

Don't throw away even the thing your child hasn't played with for a long time. Your child will probably notice such a loss and then make claims.

Before throwing away any toy, be sure to consult with your child.

Better yet, involve your child in cleaning the children's room. In this case, the child will control the situation, so there will be no "betrayal". At the same time, the boy or girl will learn to clean up their room.
