[quote=Anonymous]This is a question that needs background, but overall if you are not a poor struggling young person, it is rude. You spend the money and hire people willing to take the risk of injury. I have a cousin who has always been kind to me and doesn't like to impose. I would gladly help her move by packing things, but not lifting. I would offer. She is too lovely to ask, she would simply mention she is moving. My sister is a taker. She would post a question like this hoping to hear...of course...they are family, they should help you. She would leave out that my whole life she has asked for favors and she NEVER , ever is available to help anyone else. So it would be a hard no. Anyone who deals with her at some point realizes your kindness is taken advantage of and boundaries are a much. That all said, I always hire movers. You are asking your friends or family to do something that could contribute to lifelong orthopedic problems and I think that is selfish. [/quote]
