Its my neices 3rd birthday tomorrow. My brothers dd. My ds 3rd birthday on friday. He wont be having aa party as such as he doesnt really have any friends yet this will hopefully change next year when he starts preschool. Anyway he will have a little tea party on his birthday and a birthday treat of a day at the zoo on saturday. My neices party is on sunday. Each year I simmer inwardly as its always a few days after my ds birthday and noone including my parents even acknowledges it. This year its 2 days later next year it'll be the very next day. Have thought of sharing the party (at a soft play area) but sil wouldnt even consider it as she wants the focus on her dd.

Feeling slightly bad as I am now wondering if the OPs parents don't acknowledge her DSs birthday at all.

More info please OP!

I dont think I understand. Confused

badfairy · 09/11/2010 17:19

I am not sure why this is a problem My DS1 has his birthday the day after my eldest nephew so each year my sister and I take it turns to have the weekend nearest ( the other one usually has an event the week after that) For the first couple of years we did joint ones but now they all have there own friends so that doesn't work. I think YABU and for some reason a bit jealous Confused

MaDuggar · 09/11/2010 17:20

My DDs share a birthday. What he hell should I do Confused

gorionine · 09/11/2010 17:29

Op I am a bitConfused are you angry because nobody at your niece's party mentions your |s's birthday, and that happens every year? Why should they mention him on her birtday (from what I get they are not actually born on the same day?)

If you treally want a fuss made arround your own son, I am afraid you are going to make your own party and if he does not have friends to invite make it a family party but It is really bizarre to think your son is entitled to anything at someone else's party.

YABU.

Your niece has friends, her parents arrange her a party. Its nothing to do with your son!

YABU

gorionine · 09/11/2010 22:10

OP I have re read your first post. Maybe we all misudestood you? Is theproblem actually that nobody wishes your son a hapy birthday on his birthday because you do not do a party?Gosh I do not sure I understand my own post nowBlush. Does your family wish him a happy birthday and get him a gift at all or not? (If that is any clearer)

badfairy · 10/11/2010 10:07

Ok I've re-read it too. Are you saying that you are upset because on your DS's birthday no one calls to sing happy birthday or brings presents round etc. But they do for your niece 2 days later? Because if you are then I can understand you feeling a bit sad for your DS and for that YANBU.

claireb1974 · 10/11/2010 10:27
