So I’m in my late 20s and move out from my parents place long ago. Over the past 4 years she has given me over 30 pairs each of jeans, dress pants and shorts. I don’t like to own more than say 5 pairs in each category. If I give away the stuff my mom gives me she gets emotional and enraged. I try to explain that I don’t want so much stuff, and when she drowns me in clothes she basically takes away my ability to dress myself because there is no room for me to pick out my own clothes. Every time I see her she gifts me multiple outfits. How do I get through to her that the gifts are more of an annoyance and are wasting her money?
