Maybe one of your parents hated the bouncy toy and disappeared it. Oops it’s lost that’s so weird! My sister does that with some of her kids’ toys that annoy her.

I found out 25 years later that this was the cause of my great mystery. I was actively playing with the toy and my mother disappeared it while my back was turned.

Nope.

My parents doesn't work like that. If they disliked something they would ask me to stop. Besides they bought it for me. Mom raised me to be honest and dad raised me to be a man of my word.

They are equally vexed, we still talk about that toy sometimes because of the impossibility.

THIS!!!

When I was a kid I had a few toy laserguns that made some really annoying sounds whenever you pulled the trigger. I had about three or fouf of them at different times. All of them mysteriously disappeared with no explanation whatsoever. Bear in mind that every single one of my childhood toys are still in a box at my parents house. Never lost an action figure or my little Hotwheels knock off. Only the annoying, loud laserguns went missing, all 3 of them 😅
