[quote=Anonymous]When people stay stuff like “the family” should do better, he is saying you should do better. This is an excellent time to invite him to take on the role of the person who can do better. Invite him to get the items or offer to ship them. Before you ship them, you may want to check with the other kids. I had a woman tell me I should do X in my volunteer role. I said I was at capacity for my volunteer hours and invited her to do the work. Guess what? She never took on the work. She just wanted to tell me what to do and add more to my plate. I do this every single time with family and volunteer colleagues, and it is politely done and works wonders. I also did this when I managed a Facebook group. Some people said I needed to do this or that, and I invited them to do that labor. None of them did anything. [/quote]
