'It seems like everyone but you is responsible': Dad accuses friend's kids of stealing his 8-year-old's toy, blames wife for not putting it away

Kids are unpredictable. You never quite know what their next move is going to be. Maybe they'll start crying because their pants are a little too tight. Maybe, out of nowhere, they will ask you why dolphins have blowholes. Maybe they'll throw a Lego at your face just to see what would happen. You truly never know. Another fun (and common) thing that kids will do is steal. They haven't quite internalized the idea of personal property, and they love to grab it. It's only natural that many kiddos end up going through a little bit of a klepto phase. They can't help it. They're like Ariana Grande: "I want it? I got it."
It's the responsibility of the adults around them to make sure this impulse doesn't happen at inopportune times and get them in trouble. But you have to learn some lessons on your own sometimes. Not everything is going to be easy.
