At the same time - while I can understand the kid's frustrations, and my soft spot says give the kid the toy - I am of the opinion that behavior like that should not be rewarded. By giving the toy to the kid, a parent would potentially be encouraging it to happen again. I saw pictures of the kid, and he didn't look that freaked out... he could do it again.
Why do I feel like a hard-ass all of a sudden?
