[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can someone please tell me if this is outrageous. Friends with an older baby offered some hand me down clothes.  After the exchange the I got a text that some of the outfits have been labeled as favorites and I was asked to give them back when I was finished with them.

Asinine. I had twins and had lots of people giving me hand-me-downs. My best friend from work had garbage bags full of clothes she brought over when i got out of the hospital. I have insanity going on in my home as I have infants in the nicu and I was on bed rest from 20 weeks and hospitalized for weeks. People were very kindly dropping things. She dropped off the bags and told me her mother had gotten most of them from yard sales and some were hand me downs from her friends. She had so many clothes for her son that he never wore most of them. I didn't have things prepared for my kids because we didn't think they were going to make it. She knew all of this was going on and 2 years later starting asking about getting her stuff back. I had tried to return some of the stuff to her at their 1 year mark and she had no interest. Do people really think you remember which onsie was from their pile?  I also had kind of the opposite happen. I  had a neighbor who was having a grandchild who called dibs on certain items before my kids even got to wear them. [/quote]
