In today's Asking Eric column, R. Eric Thomas responds to a question about asking for gifts to be returned after a family separation.
I had already arranged to give them many things, including my late daughter’s artwork, two antique Chinese wedding chests and a Turkish rug. I paid to have these things, as well as a dining set, two sofas, and beds, moved to their house, thinking that they would get back together. Before you reach out, it’s wise to loop your son in about your plans. He may have already made arrangements for the items as part of their mediation – or whatever process they’re using to negotiate their separation. Or he may request that you let him handle it because the situation is complicated.
