| Which member(s) of your household support or contribute to your decluttering or organizing efforts, and how? (For example, “My husband keeps the home office and his workshop organized.”) | My husband supports my effort by keeping his own stuff lean. But sometimes he's discards too easily. A couple of years back he gave away some lawn chairs and then every summer since he asks me where they are. I tell him he gave them away. This summer he bought 2 new lawn chairs but they're not as nice as the ones he gave away. My daughter adds to my kitchen clutter by purchasing kitchen gadgets that are never used. (She likes to cook and lives with us). |
| 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.”) | My daughter over purchases all kinds of items. I try to keep them to her bedroom, but sometimes that isn't possible. |
| 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.”) | I would wish my adult daughter would organize her bedroom. She has an empty closet and doesn't fill it -- just keeps stuff laying on the floor around the room. |
| 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.”) | My son's pottery creations he made in high school. He lives in another state in temporary housing and can't store it. My husband would pitch it. I'm saving it for when he's more settled. |
