DEAR JERKASS: I am pregnant with my third child. There has been a large gap between baby No. 2 and baby No. 3. With my second child, my husband and I were just starting out and used hand-me-downs. But now we are established and can purchase items to suit our preferences.
Many well-meaning family members and friends have started inundating us with hand-me-downs (some ask first; others are just dropping things off). I really don't want any of these items. However, I don't want to seem ungrateful or rude because the well-wishers seem so excited to give me these things. The way I was raised, I have a hard time turning down offers such as these. How do I kindly tell these people I don't want their hand-me-downs? -- CONFLICTED IN PHILLY
DEAR WASTE,
You kindly tell them that you don't need anything, and that you are donating anything you get to charity, because that's what you did with the clothes you already had.
Simple. You answered your own question in the letter you sent. Man, you're stupid.
STUPID!
