[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So my wife's birthday is Friday. I'm not acknowledging it. No dinner, no gift, and I'll do my best to pretend I'm unaware.

We had a tiff three days before fathers' day (about something she was 100% wrong about) and she ignored fathers day. Nothing from the kids, no dinner, nothing. When I mentioned it the following day she said, and I quote "Why would I celebrate someone who was being a jerk?"

Again, it's indisputable that she was wrong. She's just that stubborn.

Anyway- just airing it out there. I'll let you know how it goes.[/quote]

Well technically speaking your kids are the ones who really ignored you for Father’s Day.  I wonder why, hmm…[/quote]

That's not how fathers day works, especially with younger kids. I bet you want us to believe your 8 year old DD cooked you filet mignon on fathers day and got you a new graphite hybrid driver, right? :lol:  :lol:  :lol: [/quote]

They've been married 21 years. Chances are their kids are high schoolers or maybe even young adults. Please. By this point those kids should be making the effort, [b]not being reminded by mom.[/b][/quote] BWABABAHAHAHAH. Of course they get reminded by mom. OMG. Of course. They don't spontaneously think of father's day or their parent's birthdays. But that's OK. They should get a level of help/reminders appropriate to their age. For my practically adult (16&17 yo )kids that means me reminding them multiple times over the two weeks before an event, but letting them get/make a gift/card on their own. I'll give them suggestions if they want them.
