Quotes to ponder:
"Talking is essential to decluttering because there is an emotional process that we have to go through as we get rid of things."
"Don't go through stuff while they are away, don't toss the junky toys and papers without asking permission."
"It's ok to get rid of an unfinished project if they took up knitting and got through 4 inches of a scarf before acknowledging that it frustrated them, give them permission to let things go."
