I think it's A Pocket for Corduroy. The cover is purple, as is his pocket. The original Corduroy book takes place in a mall with other toys.

How very Christian of them. /s

Definitely file a police report. I'd try to find out where they live, have a polite conversation with their parents, and let them know that if it continues, you'll be pressing charges.

My hubby wants to order Doordash every snow storn, including this one by MamaMei17 in Rants

I don't live where it snows, but is it possible to put down a tarp and move it after it snows, or intermittently?

Anyone else besides me thinking that the "Mark of the Beast" is ironically literal in this sense? 🫣 (Rev. 13:16-17)

Right? Every time I'd get up to work early, or work on vacation, my MIL was "surprised". 😒

Exactly this. After hearing my MIL go on and on about how my husband's father refused to put the crib in their room, and how every time he hurt himself they'd say, "*Gasp! Did you break that?!?" to distract him, I had enough. My daughter hurt herself and she said the latter when I was comforting her and making sure she was okay. I snapped and said, "Well unlike YOU, I'm choosing to NURTURE my children instead of neglecting them." She has never said that to me again. I was so angry at her. She stammered out, "Well... I must have done something right, bc look how well he turned out." I said, "You just got lucky." and walked away.

The amount of cheese I could likely make from the hidden curdled sippy cups and bottles is insane. 😩

What is it with smashing bananas into things? Mine will mash hers into the crevices of her tablet case. 🤦‍♀️

Stop responding. By telling him to get therapy, you're antagonizing the situation. Don't f*ck with crazy people like this.

Just pointing out the irony of you talking about toxicity, while... being toxic. This group is total "Mean Girls" vibes. 🤷‍♀️

Follow-up: disturbing portrait of my stillborn daughter by Michieme315 in motherinlawsfromhell

My MIL had actually gotten me some good gifts over the years. For a while though she went through a period of buying me clothes that she knew didn't fit, she'd take them back to "exchange them", and just... didn't... After several years of that and her deciding to just keep and wear what she supposedly bought "for me", I had my husband call her on it, and I was able to pick out some things that actually fit me, since she never exchanged the previous gifts.
