PSA: The awkward talk I had with my dad about his hoarding at Christmas
Last Christmas at my uncle's house in Pittsburgh, I found my dad stuffing empty wrapping paper tubes into a kitchen cabinet. I had to finally say something because his garage at home is packed floor to ceiling with junk. I told him straight up that it worried me and offered to help him sort through it one Saturday a month. He got defensive at first but then admitted he didn't know where to start. Has anyone else had to push a parent to deal with a hoarding situation without them shutting down?
