[quote=Anonymous]My spouse and our kids have birthdays at the height of summer when no one is ever around to have a birthday party. My spouse says that growing up his family went on vacation the week of his birthday and he got a piece of cake at restaurant (sometimes with one candle) to celebrate. For our kids, I would try to arrange a party weeks later -- or pull in neighborhood kids for a quick birthday cake, anyone want cake? It was impromptu. What I find is that my spouse and young adult kids do not make a big deal about their birthdays. In fact, they relish the non-attention of not having a big, blow-out birthday party with 50 people. I would tell your husband to stop saying how much he hates NYE. It's like saying he doesn't like his kid, or she might interpret it that way. Oh, God...we have to celebrate NYE and our kid? That's not a message you want to send to her.[/quote]
