[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry I'm team OP. why the hell should she have to remind them of THEIR grandchilds bday?? I bet they don't forget to call the other grandkids[/quote] If there is a specific outcome that she wants for her child, she needs to put the wheels in motion to make that happen. Birthdays are not a big thing to some people, proximity plays a role, and, you know what? Sometimes people just get forgetful/distracted/etc. and forget. My ILs think it's fine to say happy birthday in a weekly call rather than making a second call day-of. It's only as big a deal as you make it, or, as my six-year-old pointed out on her birthday this year when cards/calls rolled in early/late, "It's been my birthday ALL WEEK - this is awesome!"[/quote]
