What's Your Toy?

A little girl of 5 years old is asked a question after she mentions how she is struggling with the fear to lose her toy.
"Little girl what is more important the toy itself or the fear to lose the toy?"
The little girl answered immediately, "the fear to lose my toy is more important then the toy itself" she said. This means that the toy really is not that important after all that is why kids are so fickle with toys.
Kids want something no sooner do they get it they want what the other kid has and forget about their new toy that they crying to their parents to get it. We do the same no sooner do we have our toy we are bored of it and want another and another then we want what the neighbor has and so on.
This is the game we play with ourselves as we get older with beliefs especially and partners and aspirations and ideals.
the toy is a distraction from the need for a toy an addictions and so on.
We do not think why the toy is really so important to us? 
We do not think why the fear to lose it is more important than the toy itself?
Toys turn into houses cars partners.
We can see where it starts as kids
How did we get such a mind set?
Look how young it starts, she is 5 and already its an outer commodity to hide an inner deficit, a compensation for a perceived lack.
Do they even need toys for fun and distraction at all? 
Why do we need distractions? 
What can we do that when a kid gets a toy they become afraid to lose it or find its not good enough they want more and more and what the other girl has to? 
What can we do? Do you know how to help ourselves with this problem before we can help kids not to have this problem.
So with that said what is your toy?

The boy with no toy: 

In the corner of the playground sat a young boy, a teacher approached and asked "where is your toy? It's toy day today and your sitting alone, I'm going to get your mum on the phone!" 
The little boy smiled and said "I am okay, I don't need a toy to have a good day" . "This is no good, the teacher replied, I'll get you a toy from the classroom inside!" 

"Its really ok, the little boy said, I'm having such fun inside my own head! I know you think that your being kind, but no toy in the world would I swap for my mind." 

The teacher looked cross and called him a silly boy, And told him he was the only child with no toy. That may be so laughed the little boy, but my mind is for life A toy is just a toy.
