I’m grateful to say that just happened with my Next Avenue blog post, “Sorry, Nobody Wants Your Parents’ Stuff,” about challenges boomers and Gen X’ers are facing finding homes for their late parents’ heirlooms (as I experienced after my father died last fall). I Won’t Let This Happen to My KidsCindy Farnsworth Munoz: After having to get rid of my parents "stuff" twice when I lived in another state, I am more determined than ever not to leave that job for my daughter. Patricia Kane Bahr: I'm part of a vintage group on FB [Facebook] and lots of people love old furniture. Bj Shelby: I believe it is the responsibility of the living to "proudly" dispose of their family members' accrued stuff … Articles like this one are tagging The Parents' stuff as a problem. I loved going through my parents stuff and my grandparents stuff!
