[quote=Anonymous]My mother does this and we all think it’s great! It’s part of her downsizing efforts. She’s very honest that stuff came from a closet. She doesn’t care what we do with it once we have it. But it’s normally items she has a hard time parting with emotionally, but that she knows she doesn’t need. This year I got a framed photo of my my great-grandparents who died long before I was born. My mom couldn’t bear to toss it, so it’s mine now. Fine! I’ll hold onto it for a bit until I make it digital or toss myself. In the past I’ve been given old tablecloths, a great grandmothers butter dish or similar items. My mom is in her late 70s and knows we’ll be dealing with this stuff at some point, so why not get ahead of it a few items at a time? Of course if you’re offended I’d just stop exchanging gifts with this person at all. [/quote]
