I really think I have zero hoarding tendencies. I'm constantly trying to clear out any hint of clutter. I'm pretty sure that's not just denial, although I'm sure it's a way of coping with growing up in a home where I had to fight for space to live.
I'm guessing that if my mom weren't around, my dad might easily expand to other topics. He doesn't seem to see anything wrong with the stacks of dusty books blocking the stairway, and taking over every table/shelf/unused floor space. I mean, he has books stacked behind the sofa, and doesn't find that problematic at all.
