[quote=Anonymous]Read "Coming Clean," a memoir about a women who grew up with parents who were hoarders. Awful. There was no space on the floor to walk, rats everywhere, no food b/c the fridge was full of spoiled food (so they had to eat out all the time). As she grew up, she tried again and again to help her parents by cleaning, hiring crews to clean, helping her parents move to new apartments/houses, but over and over again they reverted to hoarding and filth. It doesn't say if she finally gave up in the end (but I doubt it--you can tell how enmeshed they are). Sounds exhausting but you can't really do much for hoarders. Really, unless they go through extensive therapy willingly, they are going to remain the way they are.[/quote]
