I have also done that with my son. While decluttering he got carried away and decided to give up a few toys I knew he lived and he would miss. Do I kept them and a few days later, I asked if he was still ok giving them away. He was glad to get them back! I didn't say anything in the moment because it seemed to me I would interrupt his flow and his confidence by second guessing his decisions... But it also felt a bit harsh to me not to help in a situation that was obvious to me that he would be sad later. It probably wouldn't be a big deal but... you know... being a mom and all that. 😊

@@debygiannioti4271 I think you were very wise. You knew your son well enough to know what decisions he might regret and planned for the remorse without penalizing yourself.
Cass, even my 4yo son came running over to watch this video! Would loveeee to see a "15 minute "all day declutter" for toddlers, where you talked directly to the tv and ask them to run around and fill a basket of old toys or explain the difference between things you use and extras. Like a kids show but teaching decluttering to kids, you'd be amazing at it ❤

Cass, congratulations on the CPR certification. I am as well. I had to use infant CPR twice on my grandson. It was probably the most emotional thing I ever did. When the paramedics came, he was life flighted. It took a long time before I could talk about it without tears. He was literally dead when I discovered him. Today he is 26. A testament to the training.
I love calling it a gifting box instead of a donation with kids!!!! Such a better visual for them
Stella is the ideal client! Decisive, willing to let stuff go, positive attitude 😊
I am a paramedic, and I have legitimately SAVED a life because someone did good CPR before we arrived. I’m very proud of you and grateful you took the class!

I started a declutter in my son's room by myself and got rid of 5 bags of stuff and he never asked for 1 toy that I donated. I then started letting him declutter his own stuff. When his room got super dirty I had him pick up each piece and decide if it was getting donated or staying. At first he kept most EVERYTHING. But the more often we have done it, the more he has donated. It was hard for me to let him keep stuff I knew he wasn't using. But now hes gotten so good at it!
My daughter is starting to figure out decluttering (she’s 4), and I practically skip out the door with donations every time my six month old grows out of some thing. I’m done with having babies and I’m so happy that stuff is leaving my house. Watching these videos has shown me that I can do it, and I’ve really got the ‘bug’ for organizing from Clutterbug. Thank you Cass!

I am super impressed with those kids. The both know exactly what they want and what they don't want. They easily make decisions and then act. Stella is able to do it too, impressive. And Cas - wow, he is clear and thoughtful and self-assured. And again, he clearly knows what he wants and doesn't, and decides on it, and acts. Impressive.

Cas, you are not only gifted at decluttering; it is obvious you are also a great Mom, and a super fun person to be with, not only for adults but also kiddos. This Mom is also a great Mom to have such exceptional children!!! Those two kids are a couple of the most adorable, well behaved children I have seen, well, ya' know, other than mine when they were young, and my😢 grandkids. Fortunately, there is no cap on the number of absolutely adorable kiddos allowed at any given time! 😄

Exactly! I was thinking about her having run a daycare and her gift for being with kids really shone through.
They did a great job!! So cute! We homeschool and my 10yo verbalized to me recently that she couldn’t do school in room because it’s too messy and she couldn’t concentrate. We finally finished a second round of decluttering in her room and added a few clear bins and she loves it! I’m glad she feels more comfortable in her room now and she can find what she wants and knows where it goes back. I think Dana K White’s question “where would you look for this first?” works really well for kids.

Stella and Cassius both did a wonderful job of decluttering. Congratulations on getting certified for taking the first aid course and CPR class. Many years ago my mom talked me into taking the classes with her. I went reluctantly, thinking I would never need to use them. One day my mom ended up choking on a piece of a hotdog. I had to do the Heimlich maneuver on her. She survived and went on to become an EMT and run on the ambulance in the small town where we lived. I would have never known how to do this properly without taking the courses.

I did a decluttering session with my two teenage nieces . They were a little reluctant at the beginning but I assured them they could keep whatever they wanted. They both did great and got rid of like ten big garbage bags of clothes etc combined from both rooms. So sometimes bringing in an outside person who is easy to work with might get your kids or spouse etc the same outcome as Stella and Cas.

It's one of those things you hope not to have to use, but that one time you need it, you're so grateful to have it! I genuinely think everyone should be taught first aid.
Oh my goodness, those kids are adorable and SO much better at letting things go than i am!!! I am a nurse and i say Bravo for learning CPR!! The more people that know it, the better!!

When my kids were younger, we had a rule… If you get something new, something old has to leave. It was very helpful in keeping their space organized. We talked about that rule every time we would go to the store and my son especially would want something new. I would ask him what we were getting rid of. Sometimes he didn’t want the new thing so he could keep an old thing.😊
Cool! I have to try it with my child. Regarding CPR and first aid: in Germany it’s mandatory to take a course to get your drivers license. But unfortunately most people do not refresh their First Aid and CPR knowledge regularly. You should refresh it at least every three years or so, but I have to admit, that I haven’t in seven years either. 🙈

Congratulations on being certified. I worked in a preschool for 30 years and we were required to be CPR and First-aid certified. I always listened intently during instruction even though I had been through it so many times. I can’t tell you how many kids I used the Heimlich on throughout the years. The AED tells you exactly what to do, trained or not. What always astounds me is that only preschool had these requirements when everyone in the school should be trained. The kids in the video had so much in their rooms not sure why they would ever leave.😃Thank you.

Hello, I live in Catalonia - Spain and I follow some of your videos to order houses in the "HOT MESS HOUSE" program, which luckily are translated into Spanish. My astonishment is to see such large houses of more than 150 m2 and that the bigger the house is, the more people accumulate, pile up, stack and store, so it is no wonder they are ashamed. I want to tell you that we live in a 60 m2 house, my daughter and I, and that in 2016-17 we renovated the kitchen, laundry room and bathroom, but... I still have things in boxes that I keep, but that I have not been able to get rid of them, I still have clothes from when I got married and from my mother and those pieces are going to cost me a lot, a lot to get rid of, since then no family or friends come to celebrations, I am confident that when autumn arrives I will be able to start detach myself and be able to open the cabinet doors, because now I can't.
