[quote=Anonymous]A couple of things I have done, successfully are: 1. Play "Put Away". Pick a number and everyone needs to "put away five things, throw away five things and give away five things." For the kids, it starts small, but just by getting 10 things x number of people in the house OUT of the house in donation or trash is worth it. 2. I live in a small house with a husband who had NOTHING as a child (a short time homeless, etc). He brings in EVERYTHING. HE has more than 7 coats. Outside of getting pissed all of the time about the mulitple numbers of things we have (11 flashlights and only four of us in the house), I spend time really LOOKING at our stuff and critically thinking about each item. If I haven't touched it, it gets packed up and stored in the attic or donated / thrown away. I use this to teach the kids about others "less fortunate" also. 3. THROW IT AWAY!! Good luck - I am right there with ya'![/quote]
