In today's society, there are many different ideas about consumption, some people are extravagant, and some people are extremely frugal. Sometimes, they even take some things given to them by relatives and friends, especially children, to save money.
However, among these old things, there are four things that must never be accepted, even relatives and friends must know how to decline.
What the hell is going on with these four things?Why can't you take it back?
Old shoes
Since "giving shoes" means "giving evil", gift-giving is considered an ominous omen, and although this Xi has gradually declined in today's society, it still exists in some places.
In addition, the gift of shoes is also a symbol of parting or parting, which is seen as a means of separating people, and when people receive shoes, it implies that the other party is about to leave. There is also disrespect, which will cause contradictions and estrangement between the two.
Even if you get a brand new pair of shoes from a friend, you have to know that these shoes are old, the bacteria on them cannot be removed, and the original owner also has athlete's feet on them, so these bacteria will infect you.
Waiting for the disease, it is already a lifetime thing, it is better to spend some money, buy a new pair of shoes, besides, the quality of the old shoes is much worse than before, the wear resistance is reduced, the safety is not high, it is easy to fall when walking.
Therefore, this kind of old shoes can be said to be harmful and not beneficial, if relatives and friends buy you a new pair of shoes, it is difficult for you to refuse, then let it go to the relevant departments**, so that you can keep your dignity and can also properly solve this matter.
Old toys
Now, as the standard of living improves, adults buy more toys for their children, and when they see a new one, they get excited, but after a while, they throw them away or give them to the neighbor's children, and they don't know that danger is quietly approaching them.
The old toys used by children have health hazards, some of which are touched by hands and bitten with teeth, which will produce a lot of bacteria, bring some harm to other children, and cause infectious diseases in serious cases.
Moreover, these old toys are either broken, or inferior, or they are no longer safe, and it is not appropriate to send them out, because they have used them themselves, which can easily cause psychological shadows.
It can also send some misleading signals that children will misunderstand that they don't deserve a new gift. It will also lower children's expectations of new things, which will affect the cultivation of their creativity and imagination.
Therefore, it is easy to misunderstand when receiving old toys from others, so in order to avoid embarrassment and discomfort, everyone chooses not to send old toys as much as possible. However, there are also some old toys that have a special meaning and are also acceptable. The formation of this idea is largely influenced by traditional culture.
Old clothes
In some cultures, it is rude to accept old clothes from others, and there are concerns about the hygiene of what is received. Although these clothes have been washed, they are things that people have used after all, so some people feel uncomfortable with them.
In addition, the old clothing style and size do not match the recipient's body shape at all, and if it is not worn properly, it may cause discomfort or even embarrassment, so it is possible to leave the old clothing unacceptable.
In addition, this also involves a person's privacy issue, because clothing is something that is in direct contact with the person's body, if you accept old clothes, it will be too private, and it will also affect the recipient's feelings towards the recipient, which is prone to negative emotions.
Some are also related to human dignity, and the acceptance of old clothes can cause people with impaired self-esteem to feel damaged and most likely to damage their self-esteem and self-confidence. What's more, those worn-out clothes are carrying bacteria and viruses.
Especially the underwear, which was worn by the original owner, and the germs on it have been fused with the clothes, and if worn on other people's bodies, they are likely to be contaminated with bacteria and cause great harm to their own bodies.
The best way is to use a professional method to deal with it, so as to achieve the purpose of environmental protection and reuse. In fact, with her current financial resources, she can buy some by herself.
Vintage clocks
"Sending the clock" means "sending the end", and the old-style clock is regarded as a symbol of the passage of time.
If you give this gift away, the person who receives this gift will feel very embarrassed, and will also feel that life is too short, so there will be conflicts.
Generally speaking, there is a reason for giving away an old watch, and the recipient will not tell others about his past, nor will he tell others about his own experience, nor will he accept those things with special history and feelings.
In addition, those old clocks have been destroyed or are no longer in use, so they cannot be used as gifts at all, because a broken clock is either useless or of no value at all.
In the eyes of some, old-fashioned clocks don't meet people's demands for gifts, nor do they satisfy as new or special gifts. Therefore, if you want to give it away, it is best to send a brand new one, and everyone will be happy.
All in all, these four gifts do deserve our attention, but sometimes, they also have some real gifts for a friend. This is why we need to learn to Xi prudent judgment and avoid misunderstandings, especially when receiving gifts.
Some gifts, perhaps out of the sincerity and kindness of a friend, do not correspond to our needs, not because of friendship or emotion, but because of how well each person accepts the gift and what it symbolizes.
Therefore, when receiving gifts, it is necessary to look at the other party's intentions, understand the sincerity of the other party, and make appropriate choices based on their own reality and value.
