If you're not going to use them, then please don't take them and donate them, that's AWFUL.  That's terrible - I'm sure people have other friends that would happily take them.[/quote]

Why one earth would you say donating baby clothes is awful??

I can afford to buy my kids' clothes as can all my friends and siblings.  If your circle is also financially sound, why would you not want your nicer quality or gently worn baby clothes to go to someone who is poor or who really would benefit from not having to buy nice baby clothes?

You sound like my mother in law.[/quote]

Unfortunately your reading comprehension is off--re-read the pp's post. She is saying don't take them if you are just going to donate them, as the friend who is giving them to you could give them to someone else who would use them. [/quote]

I read it.

She was very clear that she thinks it is awful to donate the clothes to needy strangers. She sounded horrified by the very idea.

I guess the nice clothes are for her kind of people and the poors can get the torn and dirty clothes.[/quote]
