[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Am I the only who is noticing this today? Childless women are being celebrated as mother's to their dogs, and there are memes going around "remembering the women who [b]chose[/b] not to have children" (emphasis mine.) Is it really too much to ask to just celebrate mother's on MOTHER'S Day?

(I do think it is appropriate and nice to be mindful of women experiencing infertility on Mother's Day, which is a lot different than celebrating childfree women on mother's day.)[/quote]
How do other peoples choices affect you?[/quote]

Why am I supposed to celebrate someone who chose not to be a mother on…Mother’s Day? Be a mother or not but why do you expect to be honored on Mother’s Day if you aren’t a mother due to your own choices?[/quote]

I severely doubt anyone wants *you* celebrating them. They are probably relieved that you are busy on DCUM and not bothering them (and I'm happy to help babysit you, as a gift to them).[/quote]
