[quote=Anonymous]My mother is like this in some ways--still wants a fuss made about her even though she is 70 and we children don't expect family parties/want to celebrate our birthdays that way. The difference is my mom is divorced so I can understand why she would want the attention (not that I give it to her). If it's your mom's birthday the question is why is she looking to you and not her husband? Why aren't they doing something? With your responsibilities I would just explain that it is not within your time budget to host a party for her and ask her what your dad has planned. And why wouldn't she rather do something fun and adult than do cake and ice cream like a kid?[/quote]
