If I'd expected my children to behave on my birthday/fathers day?

[SigningMum1]

3 and almost 5 girl and boy. My dd behaved as usual, so wasn't an issue when she winged and moaned. My ds, on the other hand, is usually quite sensible, funny and silly. Yesterday was a total disaster!!! I don't think my ds could cope with thinking he's not going to have attention. just gutted and upset :(

I thought 'Kids Day' was every day . We're ferrying them here there and everywhere to entertain them in many various forms. I may sound like my grandmother when i say, they don't know how good they've got it!!!

National Children's Day is at the start of June I am sure as DD was complaining that it is not yet a Halmark day

You're right canyou, International Children's Day is June 1st ! Looked under Wikipedia, however UK isn't listed, tut tut.

Aww our poor deprived children, I am off to petition Halmark
