My BD bought me a gift card from my nail salon and put it in the card the kids made. Yesterday they took me out for dinner and gave it to me. My kids are elementary school age so someone has to help them put together a gift.

My dad gets my mom a gift for mother's day and for her birthday.

He dropped by yesterday and left her her favorite cake and a giftcard to the craft store that she likes.

Yes, I usually get a gift "from" my son or flowers delivered thanking me for being a wonderful mom. But again those are"from" my son and company, lol.

My BD hates me because I took him to court for child support last year.

He’s still in his feelings.

I guess I won’t be getting a Mother’s Day card from him.

Oh well...

My ex-husband is an abusive POS and I don’t need him to acknowledge sh!t. My kids wish me a happy Mother’s Day and that’s all I need. :)

When our kids were little (we had already split), my ex-husband would invite me to brunch, help the kids pick me out a gift/card/flowers. Very unlike him, and for his own purposes, but I appreciated it nonetheless. Over the years that evolved to less and less as the kids grew up. I think a couple years ago it was down to a hmd text, and I don't expect that this year.

I do think it's important for co-parents to make a big deal out of it if they can - for the kids. Imagine being a little kid and not being able to do much/anything for your mom on mothers day, all because your parents are too bitter and childish to put you first for even one day.

I would think any father worth a damn would do something for the woman that made them that title as a sign of appreciation for making sure their kids were straight. At least in the name of the kids.

But that requires a lot of personal growth and empowerment.

:ROFLMAO: I'm not on child support. I pay the full mortgage, half day-care, food, & clothing. We're equally involved parents. I'm there damn near everyday.
Is it realistic for a man to see his baby moms “damn near everyday” and not smash? Asking for a friend.
What’s your ethnicity? I’m trying to see something

Lol, I was wrong - I did get a hmd text!

:ROFLMAO: I'm fully Black, and fully hetero. And, yes. We haven't sexed 1 another in over a yr. But, we still consider each other family, and are on good terms.

My BD used to do this when our child was younger. I told our child to stop when I found out it was a secret and our child had to hide it from StepMom. I didn't want to encourage lying and hiding. Nowadays, my child does it for me.
