And storage price. Housing in the city is like $40/sqft/year, so that plastic playhouse for your kids occupying a 3'x3' patch of living room floor gets pretty expensive.

The worst part is when kindly relatives give your kids huge toys, like a doll house or rocking horse. I know they mean well but the gift ends up being a burden just due to the space it takes up and you can't get rid of it without offending the giver.

I cannot convince my mother that ignoring someone's request to not receive any gifts is selfish behaviour by the giver.
