[quote=Anonymous]Also it doesn't have to be all or nothing. Maybe mom sleeps in and then has a special breakfast that Dad cooks with the family and the kids give her the cards and crafts they made. Then Mom goes out with friends or for a walk or pedicure or Dad+ kids go out and Mom relaxes at home. Mom stays out for dinner but is home for a dessert treat the kids helped make/buy and to kiss them goodnight while Dad does the bedtime routine. Mom can have more time away than usual without completely ignoring the kids. Or maybe Mom goes away the whole weekend and the kids celebrate her another day! That's ok too. I don't think most kids would be offended by that, and if they were a parent could say "on your birthday, we do X Y Z because you like it and we're celebrating you. On Mother's Day, Mom does A B C because she likes it and we're celebrating her." Not a big deal.[/quote]
