It might well be that the stuffed animal has more memories attached to it for mom than for son. My kids have long given up stuffed animals that I can’t bear to get rid of for better or worse.

I can see that. D2’s “blankie” is still in her closet after many other purges. I would be sad to see it go, honestly. But if she gave it away under these circumstances, I would reluctantly let her handle it; if she didn’t want to deal with him, I’d just encourage her to accept the consequences as a learning experience.
