CHRIS PRATT WANTS TO KNOW HOW LONG YOU SHOULD KEEP CHILDHOOD TROPHIES
Written by Brittany Styles on October 26, 2023
This is a great debate!
Five years ago, I made the decision to throw away the trophies I had received during my childhood activities. These trophies had been kept in boxes in my grandma’s basement for over 20 years, and I hadn’t given them a second glance. Initially, it was difficult for me to let them go, but now I’m content with my decision. I don’t miss them anymore. I know that I earned them and that knowledge is enough for me.
Chris Pratt recently posted a photo on social media featuring his wife, Katherine Schwarzenegger, holding up her childhood trophies. In the picture, Katherine appears to be very proud and her smile is beaming. At 33 years old, she still holds onto these awards.
Chris posted the following on Instagram, “But real talk… once your kid goes through the stuff, is it okay to toss? I mean… do we need the “I was on a sports team trophy?” Can they be donated? Repurposed? How many do we gotta keep? Not all of them right? Any of them? Is there a grading scale? Like, did you win? Were you a champion? Is there a specific sentimental connection? Help me out here. Do they go back in storage?“
What do you think? Keep or toss? That is the question.
