[quote=Anonymous]This is hoarder giving, not normal giving. With normal giving, the giftgiver understands and tries to gift what is needed: in your case small things that don't add to clutter, etc. Hoarder giving is about control, not about truly wishing to gift. My mom has hoarding disorder. I have lived this for years. It is not a way of expressing love. It is a mental issue. I do not pretend to like the gifts anymore as my opinion is largely irrelevant. I use Freecycle a lot and just throw out a lot. I resent the work it causes, but it is a mental health issue and I try to keep that in mind.[/quote]
