My mom is not able to help but will pare down when I work with her. 4 generation household. My grandson will donate toys when we decide it is time to go through them.
Which member(s) of your household frustrate, foil, interrupt, or otherwise complicate your decluttering or organizing efforts, and how? (For example, “My preteen child picks through the donation box to retrieve items even after we’ve reached agreement to get rid of them.”)If the toys don't leave asap then the grandson wants to keep a few. Daughter has issues keeping trash and clothes or items in her own room.
If you were to wish for one change of behavior from someone—or everyone—in your household with respect to clutter, what change would you wish for? (For example, “My preteen child picks through the donation box to retrieve items even after we’ve reached agreement to get rid of them.”)Everyone to pick up daily after themselves. Not let surfaces like tables or desks get out of control.
Describe an item about which you have a strong disagreement with someone else in your household over whether or not it deserves a place in your home. (For example, “My mother’s 30 years of TV Guide magazines.”)So many books and crafty things for Mom, crafty stuff for me. Who knows what in the garage, too hot to deal with it until Nov.
