[QUOTE="KFld, post: 77112, member: 2442"] I don't think you did anything wrong at all. Your difficult child has chosen not to live home and you cleaned up her room and neatly packed and labeled her stuff away. You didn't move her furniture out and redecorate it and turn it into a different room and it's nice like you took her stuff and tossed it on the street. If your sister and her husband were coming to stay in the room you would have needed to clean it up anyway. It's never an easy thing to do. If she's offended just explain to her that she has chosen to not live home, so for now you needed to clean up her room and use it for something else in the meantime. I cleaned my difficult child's room when he first moved out and let it sit for probably almost a year. Only because we didn't really need it for anything else at the time, but just recently we had turned it into an office. There is no trace of his room left in there, but he hasn't lived home for 2 years and has moved on in life and won't be coming back to live. The only thing I did, which he laughed at, I have a coffee mug with his picture on it from when he was little, so I have that on the desk and that is what I keep my pens and pencils in. He laughed when I showed him that part of him was still in that room. [/QUOTE]
