How Do I Approach Throwing Away Of Gifts

My mom threw away the gifts that I gave her on Mother's Day and told me that she hates this day. Why did she do this?

Of course, no one knows the answer to this but your mom so I suggest that you approach her gently and ask her what is bothering her. I would guess that she is depressed or struggling with some other issue. Regardless, please understand that this is her problem and that you did not do anything wrong. Any mother in a healthy state of mind would appreciate any gift that her child gave to her. The fact that you thought of her and tried to please her would be gift enough to most mothers. This is why I conclude that she is either suffering from depression or wrestling with some other issue that Mother’s Day dredges up for her. When you speak with her, it would be wise to be prepared to steer her to a mental health professional who can further assist her. Good luck!

Is it okay for your parents to throw away your stuff?

I have to deal with that kind of **** on a daily basis, so I feel you. Seriously, it sucks. It pisses me off SO much, you have no idea. My mom does the same, and some things I've found out that work are:

1. When I'd cry infront of her(like literally sob for hours on end), she wouldn't throw away my stuff for some time. You could try to make her feel sorry for you.
2. I recently told my mom that because she throws away things I own without asking me, I've turned into a compulsive hoarder(truth). I think that really made her think as she hasn't thrown away anything for about a month now.
3. Hide away or repair things that your mom might consider 'useless'. For example, I have a pair of shoes that I LOVE and have worn to death. They look a bit worn but I don't care. When my mom started joking about throwing them, I repaired them with black patent shoe polish so she wouldn't. And guess what, she still hasn't!
4. Do your own laundry, lock your room, etc.
5. Give her a taste of her own medicine. My sister did this once. She threw away EVERYTHING in my mom's wardrobe out on the living room floor because my mom threw her jeans away...crazy. I wouldn't recommend this, but you might just have to if things get REALLY bad.

I know I sound crazy right now, but this is a MAJOR problem for me. I'm obsessive over my things pretty much to the point where I can't let anyone enter my room and not think that they're going to throw something away. And I get attached really quickly to material objects, which sucks. I don't have it in me to even throw away receipts/price tags because I just don't ever want to lose anything. Okay, I'll stop talking now. Hopefully this will not turn you into the paranoid, crazy f***er I am today. If you ever get sad over this, I just want you to know that somewhere out there goes through the same. Stay strong babe x

Is it wrong to feel disappointed about one of your wedding gifts?

I can see being a bit disappointed but let it go and either donate it to charity, or save it to re-gift down the road (which may well be why you have it now).

Some people are thoughtless gift givers...hopefully this won't cause a rift between you and those family members.
