AIBU

[PSILoveWine]

To be completely devastated that it is now 6pm and not one person in my family has acknowledged my DD's birthday today?
I have a large family, DD has 6 aunties and 5 uncles. My children are the only kids in the entire family.
What makes it worse is DD has asked what her grans and aunties might get her.
AIBU to be this upset? OH thinks it's just us that matter but she's more than old enough to remember.

YABU to not include the actual question in the title of the thread so people know whether to open your thread or not.

Other than that, YANBU in thinking your family is shit if none of them have even bothered to send cards.

I really think you should teach kids that birthdays are only really marked by immediate family and anything else is a bonus.

People have different values - I literally couldn’t give a fuck about birthdays but there are plenty of things I care about that people I love don’t.

Are they kind to her? Do they love her and treat her well? If so get her to concentrate on that - not what they might get her.
