[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No the boomers keep asking when they are going to be invited to a party to celebrate the birthday. They 100% expect OP to throw an extra party just for their benefit. This is stupid, entitled and ridiculous boomer behavior.

Just be direct and repeat that you are not having a second party. They can FaceTime a Happy Birthday or do a regular call, send a card through the mail, send a gift or not or just stew that their grandchild is enjoying her birthday in NYC rather than celebrating in a manner that works better for them.

Calm down. These people love and just want to celebrate their granddaughter. Op is just being difficult for no apparent reason. Does she not like her daughter enough to want people to acknowledge her birthday more than once?[/quote]
They celebrated her a week before her birthday. DD chose the party she wanted, grandparents shouldn't override what the birthday girl wants.

You think it's more important that we cater to the grandparents rather than the one celebrating the birthday? No one is being difficult, mom is following what DD wants. [/quote]
