I sound like a snob, hear me out. Inspired by another thread.
Aibu to expect my nan not to keep clothes from my ten year old cousin for my 5yo ds and pass them onto me
She has kept every item of clothing,shoes, school uniform possible to pass on to ds. cousin is 10 but wearing age 14 clothes as hes super tall/big. My nan is boxing everything up for me to take home, firstly ive got no space literally 5 people in small 3 bed no loft ect, along with not wanting to keep clothes for 5 years or more and also that most of the clothes dont suit ( the uniform is a complete different colour ect, shoes are absolutely huge sizes, clothes are the same well worn and on their way out)
She will not take im not having them for an answer to just keeps them and gives me bags of it when i go round which i end up giving to charity. Its starting to really grate on me and when i state why i dont want she rattles on about cost and how shes trying to help us, cant afford ect. Its really getting me down as we can! we arent minted but definatly not struggling to clothe kids or anything else. Shes driving me bats, even when i dont take the clothes she will keep them and send ds home when he visits with my dad in an eight year old size hoody or some such.
