[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I resented Mother's day for years because I was in the trenches with young kids but my MIL and my mom both expected to have a fuss made about them. This particularly rankled because my mom has been acting like a child for the last 25 years. My mom actually mothered me well for about 25 years but is has now been the same amount of time that I have been assuming various care taking duties. My spouse is not good at getting the kids to do anything for me and it's just easier if I don't have any expectations that something nice will be done. I just use it as a sort of mental permission slip to do something nice for myself later like book a massage and not feel guilty about the money.[/quote] Pretty much this. I have a good husband but he sucks at occasions. Always has. I’ll keep him but it’s hard on these days to see the husbands that go all out.[/quote]
