How can I keep my clothes from Wrinkling?

Is it bad that i keep my clothes in laundry baskets, and don't hang them up often?

  • Is it a big deal that i tend to keep most of my and the kids and husbands clothes in laundry baskets. I take care of 3 kids all day, work part time at nights, take care of the house, the shopping, all that stuff. i get stressed, and i sometimes get that i don't care attitude when its comes to the laundry. after doing the laundry, a lot of the times, i won't hang up the clothes. i'll just keep them in baskets for awhile, and put clothes out as every one needs them. is that horrible? some people lately have commented to me, that its bad that i don't hang up all the clothes or put them all in the dressers. i don't think its that big of a deal. i'm busy, and stressed a lot. I don't think its hurting any one. what do you think?

  • Answer:

    As long as you are a good mother and wife otherwise no it doesn't really matter. Not everyone can be perfect in every way. Ask your husband for help. Tell him you have no problem with washing the clothes but need help putting it away. And also get your kids, no matter what their age is to start helping you also. If they can walk and talk then they can help you put their clothes away...at least a few so they get the idea. Really if the clothes are put out of sight that is what people will notice. I would maybe buy some large wooden "toy" boxes and instead of toys put the clean laundry of each child's in that box. It is much easier to toss clean clothes into a box then fold or hang everything. As long as you try to put socks and underwear or the right and clothes on the left then it won't be too hard to pick out clothes for your child to wear every day. Make your husband put his own clothes away. Honestly if you are that overwhelmed then as long as things are put out of sight into a closet or large toy box then no one will notice that you aren't perfect and no one would ever say a thing again about how you handle the family's clothes. Don't tell people, even your friends what you do in your own household if you don't want to be judged negatively. And keep untidiness out of sight of others. Women are always judged negatively by other women for how they keep their household....even if the woman works full time.

Ask yourself if it is going to matter in 10 years. If the answer is no, dont worry about it. If the clothes are wrinkled throw them in the dryer for 10 minutes.

honestly i'm the same way, i don't have kids but could care less whether i fold or hang clothes lol but then again i'm a single guy in his late 20's so maybe that has something to do with it :) you asked for peoples thoughts on it so, no, personally i don't think its a big deal. you seem to be busy and are doing a good job at taking care of your family and that is pure awesomeness lol :)

As long as you don't mind wearing wrinkled and crumpled clothes then it's okay.
