Toddler took my phone. I asked for it back, he disappeared for a moment then handed me back the purple ring from his tower toy thing. He looks satisfied with our "trade" and buggers off again, only to leave the phone behind on the floor anyway.

Is your son British? That sounds similar to what they did with countries....

If he was British he would've pillaged whatever was valuable from the phone then left it.
