My sister recently broke up with her partner of 5 years who has a 9 year old child. Although they were together a long time and lived together, due to the nature of the breakup, my sister and the child will not have a relationship going forward (for now, it may change). But my dilemma is..I have his school photos and things he made me all around my desk...what do I do with it?
