Sounds like a good setup for a sitcom. Four siblings divide the family home into equal parts with crazy results! Sandy has to pass through the DMZ between Fred's living room and Bill's 3/4 share of the main hallway to get to the bathroom. Eliza implements border controls around the kitchen and makes a play for full control by instituting martial law over the entire house. Will Eliza succeed in her bid for power? Will Sandy finish the visa application process before the inevitable occurs? Stay tuned!

My mom was one of 12 kids, and after her mom died there was all this drama about grandma’s pearl necklace. The family never had much money, but she had an old and classy pearl necklace that had been handed down a few generations. Many of the women in the family wore it on their wedding day. Since people couldn’t agree who it would go to, most of them wanted to break it into pieces and keep a pearl or two. My mom and one or two other siblings thought it was terrible to destroy the necklace for this, but my mom just wanted to keep out of the drama. I agreed with her though. A nice necklace is more than the sum of its parts. Who cares about a random loose pearl? Though I suppose you could repurpose them for other jewelry… I don’t know what ended up happening. I only got updates about it from my mom, so after she passed I stopped hearing about it.

Midnight Voyager posted:Because it's THEIR LAND. It happens all the time, everyone wants THEIR PIECE of the parcel. It'll be unsellable, but it's theirs. I guess developers know this is a thing, because if the land sells, it's always one of them snapping up all the pieces at once. But it's such a waste when they could have not had to hire a surveyor to subdivide it first! It drove me crazy. The best is when they divide it, and the person who gets the essential part like road access or something then just refuses to sell out of spite even if someone was dumb enough to buy up every other parcel.

Having a bunch of earrings and/or pendants made is not terribly expensive and not the worst thing to do for that. There are a hojillion pearl necklaces out there, truly, so unless it was a severe graduated natural pearl necklace it probably isn't that big of a deal.

Oh we often had them have to pay extra time for stuff like easements to make sure road access is included. or we'd have to cut it up particularly stupid to make sure everything touched the road. Depended on the planning zone. Stuff that wouldn't be a problem if they just sold the whole thing.

Yeah it's a sentimental relic you can easily convert into something nice, and even if it wasn't a handful of pearls are worth a lot more than a 1/12 timeshare on a pearl necklace your worst sister is gonna break and lose half of first chance she gets anyway

Owning land is the american dream. It's real. It's tangible. You can visit it and look at it and think "this is gonna be worth something some day", and nobody can take it away from you. Reason flies out the window.

SulfurMonoxideCute posted:In 1988 my grandparents bought my sister and I both a Skating Star edition Barbie because of the Calgary Olympics that were to stay in the packaging because "they're collectors items and will be worth a lot of money someday". My parents thought it would be hilarious to buy two more of them, open them, and have us play with them the next time we saw our grandparents. They did indeed lose their poo poo until they found out we still had the boxed pair in storage. This was a shockingly wholesome-sounding story! IDK how you do it PP

Sucks for the kids, but it's probably good for them to learn that their parents are gross homophobes and slutshamers and whatnot, and that behavior has consequences. I can not imagine having someone like that around my gay kid for a day, definitely not four years!!! Like this dad is the rear end in a top hat, not for kicking family out but for making his kids deal with monsters for that long.

Willing to bet she didn't keep a dedicated photo journal of daiper changes or haircuts or solid food transition or anything else about a baby. I'm in a couple of hoarding/hoarding-adjacent groups online and this isn't necessarily a hoarder thing but it's where I see people who are like "Oh I cry over the thought of giving up my child's baby clothes, I have the outfit they came home from the hospital in, their christening outfit, the outfit they wore the first time they met their grandparents, their first Halloween costume, their first Christmas outfit . . ." like, it's not really that important! There are ceremonial garments worn by infant royalty that have been preserved less carefully than these pieces of clothing! Is your child still alive? Then that's all you need to remember them when they were a baby! Some people have a really hosed-up attachment to their child's baby years. Or to their child being a baby. If my mom had been like that I would have questioned how much she actually loved me as an adult. Runcible Cat posted:Future (or already) estranged parent courtesy of Nextdoor:
