To be really pissed off with my thoughtless DH and DD

All I wanted for Mother's Day was a lie in and a cup of tea and toast.

DH and DD woke me at 9.45 (so much for a precious lie in) and presented me with a tray bearing croissants, pain au chocolat and a cafetiere of coffee. And a new Emma Bridgewater mug to drink said coffee from. And a vase of flowers. And some gift wrapped stuff which I can't be arsed opening.

All I wanted was a lie in as I'm usually woken at 8.30 by DD (5) when she kisses me before she leaves for school every morning.

AIBU?

I demanded hinted at an Aston Martin and a diamond tiara to do all my Mummy chores in.

Did I get them? Did I hell. All I got was a lovely handbag and a beautiful photo frame, both chosen by ds2. Oh and a home made 'card' from ds2 (it didn't even have a cheque in it! Shock ) DS1 even had the temerity to phone early to wish me a happy Mother's Day. Don't students care any more?

And now DH is making lunch- like THAT will make up for his poor performance.

Hmph.

9.45 FFS that is way early on a bog standard Sunday let alone worship our mothers day!

Your husband and daughte sound vile and selfish!

A crappy tray of (I bet shop bought not home made) shit presented.No spa day,no helicopter ride,no Virgn galactic trip???

I think you need to LTB and give him full custody of your child! Neither sound like they are worth bothering with much more.

I am horrified at all these thoughtless, selfish husbands and partners.

Generally, I'm against violence, but here I think it's warranted: give them a thorough fish slapping and tell them to do fucking better next year.

I imagine you will all go to town on the shitwads come fathers' day.

Bastards.

My favourite thread of the day. Some of you are hilariousGrin I've been laughing so much!

GymBum · 15/03/2015 19:00

Thing. Fathers Day? What?? Confused

ThingummyJigg · 15/03/2015 22:43

I imagine that on fathers' day, revenge Wink will be had for all the gifts and flowers. Ie there will be reciprocation. The favour will be returned.

TheAnswerIsYes · 15/03/2015 23:25

YANBU. Emma Bridgewater is sooo last year.

BadLad · 15/03/2015 23:36

For fucks sake, OP. Can you please put a trigger warning in the title?

Poor you though.

GymBum · 16/03/2015 06:40

Thing we don't waste time and money that could go to better use on my botox, fillers, nails etc on commercialised days. Fathers Day!

Strops off dismayed anyone would take such rubbish seriously in this day and age!

VashtaNerada · 16/03/2015 06:48

Just noticed this post, sorry I wasn't there to HH yesterday Flowers FWIW DS (3) couldn't be arsed to write his own card for me, the nursery staff wrote it and he just made a scribble which doesn't even look like his name. Selfish bastard.

Father's Day?! When he grows a womb and a vagina and actually makes a contribution to the creation of a human life then he might get some recognition of his worth!

The inhumanity of it all!Grin
