[quote=Anonymous]I don't care if the kids tell me there's a party. The ex sent an invitation so I would see it (and feel bad) but it was addressed to my kid, not me. He could throw a party every year if he wants to, either the weekend before or after the birthday. If all the friends are invited and bring gifts, they aren't going to want to attend another party for the same kid. It makes the kid feel I'm less than if I don't throw a party or get invited. I can't celebrate with them in a way that will top a party. I don't even care about parties really, and as kids age, they don't have big parties as much. It's just a way for the ex to emotionally abuse me. I don't feel the need to compete. It's just awkward and seems like it's all for the ex to be the hero and make me out to be the zero to alienate affection. [/quote]
