If it was reported lost or stolen, this is for a reason. You should contact Amazon to return the device to its proper owner, and the police to bust the person that sells "lost or stolen" goods. You might even get your money back.

Bought kids kindle fire. Initially came up with kids apps but now it shows up as our fourth kindle with our apps. Kids apps disappeared. Help please

Maybe you used your email address to register the Fire, if you did it will show your apps. De-register it and set the kids up their own account or an account in the spouses name and just put on the kids apps.

How do I deregister my kindle fire tablet

In your Amazon account, ( If you don't have one, create one) simply login and click on the "Manage your Kindle" tab on the right of the screen, and then select the "my devices" option, where you can register or deregister your Kindle.
If your Kindle is second-hand, you'll need the serial number of your Kindle to register it in your name.
