UPDATE I thought 'screw it' and REPLIED ALL and sent the response.
On another note, y'all probably already know that I rather suck at this 'commanding respect' or boundary-making skill. For example, yesterday, my wife gave me one paperbags full of our son's old baby toys, maternity items, etc, and another bag full of infant diapers. To the latter, she stated, "Maybe you can donate that to the church. I'm sure someone could use it."
Don't mind doing that, of course, but the more I thought about it this morning, the more I realize I should've said something like, "Since you came to my garage and took these things, saying they were yours, I don't think it'd be too hard for you to find someone or some place to donate these to yourself."
