[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t get the angst about the birthdays. I have a conflict such that I have been on work travel for half my 10 yo’s birthday. I always have an elaborate family and separate friend party....just on other days when I can be there. He doesn’t care I am not there on the actual day at all. I call and his dad is there to take him somewhere special for dinner. I can FaceTime him. It really is no big deal to kids and good to teach them a birthday can be a moveable event and still be fantastic.[/quote] Is that what happened here? Or did she just miss the birthday party and do nothing at any other time either?[/quote] annnnd just proving the point -- she has to demonstrate the supermommy steps and exactly how she celebrated her child's 7th birthday in order to be granted dispensation to have the kind of job that THOUSANDS OF MEN DO every single day.
