[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How much of a nuisance could this really be...seriously...take the high road and just throw them out yourself when you receive it. [/quote]

I love that OP just left all this junk with her parents, and them respectfully returning it is a “nuisance.” She’s not the one taking the high road here, whether she says something or not.

Do them a favor and THANK THEM for housing your crap, and let them know that you don’t want it back. Bonus points for offering to actually do the work of disposing of it when you next visit them.[/quote]

Look. I know some kids move out, leaving loads of unsorted junk for their parents to deal with. That was not me. I left a stripped bed when I moved out. I have no idea how they came to retain all of this. Every time I’m shocked, because it’s stuff I hadn’t seen for years well before I left. Honestly, now that I think about it in the context of this thread, I wonder if they were hiding it from me because they knew I would have tossed it all in the dumpster. [/quote]
