Wanted to help clear the fridge, but was grumbled by a 70 + -year-old mother.

Normally going back to not helping to prepare food

You're a regular hand, so we rarely open the fridge in my kitchen.

But this round, you are sick

We have to take the field ourselves.

Open the fridge... gasp.

Very tight. Almost closed-door tight.

Fresh Stuff Dry Stuff Old Box New Box

Like time never takes anything away. 😅

Walk to pick up the garbage bag. I'll clear it.

I haven't started yet. I've seen you before.

Hit the brakes immediately

Being said not to stop

"Don't mess with your mother."

"It's not broken yet."

"Why would you leave?"

Standing confused in front of the fridge

From a child who intended to help.

Become a man to destroy property. 😅

Go to consult younger

You said one word.

"Hit the same"

Which house is like this?

How to talk about not becoming a war in front of the fridge? 😅

# 40 plus playing lemon # 40 is still cool # 40 plus is not convenient # 40 plus must meet # 40 plus invite to talk

... Read moreจากประสบการณ์ที่ได้ช่วยแม่วัย 70+ เคลียร์ตู้เย็นเอง แม้จะตั้งใจดีแต่ก็เจอความตึงเครียด เพราะคุณแม่มักจะอยากเก็บทุกอย่างไว้โดยเฉพาะของที่ยังดูไม่เสีย แม้จะมีบางกล่องที่หมดอายุแล้วก็ตาม นี่เป็นเรื่องปกติของผู้สูงอายุหลายคนที่มีความรู้สึกรักและหวงแหนสิ่งของในบ้าน เพราะของแต่ละชิ้นมีคุณค่าและความทรงจำ ในการคุยกับแม่ควรเริ่มจากการให้ความเคารพความรู้สึกของท่านก่อน ใช้วิธีการถามอย่างสุภาพ เช่น “แม่ช่วยบอกหน่อยได้ไหมว่าของชิ้นนี้จำเป็นต้องเก็บไว้ไหม” หรือ “แม่อยากให้เก็บไว้เผื่อใช้อีกนานแค่ไหน” การเปิดใจคุยกันอย่างสบายๆ จะช่วยให้แม่รู้สึกว่าลูกเข้าใจและไม่ได้ตั้งใจจะทำลายสิ่งของแต่อย่างใด อีกหนึ่งเทคนิคที่ง่ายและได้ผล คือการอธิบายว่าการเคลียร์ตู้เย็นช่วยให้เก็บรักษาอาหารได้นานขึ้น ลดของเสียที่อาจเกิดขึ้นจริงๆ พร้อมกับช่วยให้แม่เข้าถึงของได้ง่ายขึ้นในแต่ละวัน เช่นเดียวกับช่วยลดภาระในการทำความสะอาดและจัดระเบียบ นอกจากนี้อาจเสนอให้แม่ช่วยเลือกสิ่งที่จะทิ้งเองบ้าง ยิ่งช่วยให้ท่านรู้สึกว่ามีส่วนร่วม และไม่ถูกบังคับ ในช่วงแรกอาจต้องมีความอดทนและยอมรับการบ่นบ้าง เพราะสำหรับแม่วัย 70+ นั้น รู้สึกว่าเก็บของไว้มากเท่าไร ยิ่งรู้สึกว่ามีความมั่นคงในชีวิต อย่างไรก็ตาม การค่อยๆ สร้างความเข้าใจและพูดคุยด้วยความรักจะช่วยลดความตึงเครียดและเปลี่ยนความขัดแย้งให้อยู่ร่วมกันอย่างสบายใจมากขึ้น จากเรื่องที่พบบ่อยในหลายบ้าน เช่นเดียวกับตอนที่ได้ลองปรึกษาน้องที่เป็นลูกมือ ทำให้รู้ว่าปัญหานี้ไม่ใช่เรื่องแปลก คนที่อยู่ในวัยเดียวกันหรือแม้ในวัยที่ต่างกันก็มักผ่านสถานการณ์แบบนี้เช่นกัน คุณค่าที่แท้จริงจึงไม่ได้อยู่ที่การเก็บของแต่คือการเข้าใจและเคารพกันในครอบครัว
