I know, lots of people don’t have a mum/ can’t have kids/ have it much worse.
But I’m sick of this. All day all I’ve heard from 4dc and dh is: x hasn’t bothered to get you anything for tomorrow; y threw your present in the bin because dad asked him to do z; x doesn’t even care enough to do (whatever) tomorrow; w only got you (——) because he couldn’t be bothered with Mother’s Day; the dc are too spoilt to even care enough to get you something...
All I want is a homemade card and a lie in, instead I get a day of constant pointing out of how no one cares and how they view Mother’s Day as a chore. A whole day of being told, constantly, that no one cares.... I don’t want gifts ffs, just a happy, ordinary day as a family. But instead I’m sat in tears and dh has gone to bed muttering about how we’re not doing birthdays/ holidays from now on because no one cares about me.
