[quote=Anonymous]It's a waste of resources and you have a right to say "No gifts please." I had the same thing with a manipulative relative. She would ask annoying favors and give gifts to try to guilt you into doing stuff. She also was incredibly selfish in general and not a nice person. Contrary to what some out-dated folks on DCUM think, you have a right to say "no." It's a boundary. Junk dumps are not OK if the person doesn't want more stuff. It's bad for the environment. It's a waste of fuel and packaging. Politely and assertively ask Larla to stop sending you stuff. Do not write a thank you note, because she is creating more work. You will spend time and fuel donating. Just say "no thank you." If she continues, ask again. WQe used to force kids to kiss aunt Glenda because it was polite. Now we know their bodies, their choice. Same with stuff. Not a gift if you ask the person to stop. Then it's imposing.[/quote]
