Not giving my mother a Mother's Day gift

5 replies

I'm not planning on acknowledging Mother's Day with my mother tomorrow. That sounds awful. She's currently not speaking to me after a very small and silly thing.
She is a volatile person, argumentative and causes a lot of upset over very silly things for my family.
Any one else not celebrating Mother's Day with their mother tomorrow?

I'm not.

Finally NC after years of poor behaviour from her. It feels very strange as only really went NC in Sept last year.

It's tough isn't it.

Me, because I lost her 15 years ago.

You only get one, don't ruin your relationship over "a very small and silly thing"

I'm not. It's very hard but it has to be done

I'm not. I told her last year just before Christmas that I will be NC until she can admit she has a drink problem.

I sent a basic card because it's the right thing to do, as I did at Christmas and her birthday. Also it doesn't allow her any ammunition to use in the future...

I couldn't because my Mum passed away a few years ago.I did go to the cemetary on Friday with some nice flowers for her.

I know it's really hard when your having problems with your parents(I had more than my fair share with mine)I hope what ever it was your able to sort out. Flowers
