[quote=Anonymous]What do you mean “my kids won’t take their stuff”? You announce a day a reasonable time in the future. Anything they do not take away by this deadline gets junked. It sounds like you’d benefit from hiring someone to help you not only do this but to manage the psychological aspects of this. Keep only the stuff that is meaningful to YOU and enriching YOUR life. Keeping dead relatives’ stuff will not keep them alive. Getting rid of their stuff does not equate to getting rid of them. We are not all required to be archivists, even if other family members enjoyed that for themselves.[/quote]
