I tell my grandmother “Happy Mother’s Day.” I have never heard of Grandparent’s Day til now.

Regardless, Nan sounds like a bitch so she doesn’t deserve shiiiiii.

My children don’t do much for MY mother on MOTHER’S Day. My children make a to do for their grandmother on Grandparent’s Day, which my mom likes just fine because then neither she nor I are “sharing” Mother’s Day. I get “my” day, she gets “her” day. Win win for all involved.

Dear Grandma,

I’m rich, bitch!

Signed,
I Don’t Need Your Estate

Seriously though, I hate the whole “You never call” complaint. Last time I checked the phone works both ways. If you call and leave messages and they never answer then that’s one thing but this always comes from people who think everyone else should call them.

Also, as long as they’re treating you well and appreciating you during the whole year, does it really matter if they forget about a Hallmark holiday?

Did Gran forget how to use a telephone? If she’s not trying to call them then she’s equally at fault.

By Nan’s logic she needs to give her own daughter a gift for Grandparents’ Day. After all, if daughter didn’t have kids, Nan would have never become a grandmother.
Somehow, however I think she pulls this on every holiday and event.
“It’s your birthday so YOU should be giving ME presents. If not for me you would have never been born!”

I sent a mother’s day card to my MOM. Not to HER mom. My grandmothers didn’t raise me.

Oh no, who will inherit the doublewide and the care and feeding of the Vietnamese potbellied pigs now?

QUICK, everyone send her a card!

Wow…….Fuck herself!!!How did you manage to put together this full creative thought in the form of a sentence?

Well I think that the inheritance isn’t either that much or that great if the great grandkids and grandkids-in-law are still “forgetting” to send her cards. So much for that trick. Not even an “inheritance” can keep this family relationship going strong.

I feel bad for Christy because not only is she viewed as the favorite in the family’s eyes, but because of this favoritism poor Christy will be stuck with good ol’ loving curmudgeon granny for as long as the old bat is still alive. Due to grannys poor attitude, everyone else would be done giving a shit about granny and just write her off. Hopefully if Christy values her sanity, she will see this as a sign to stop sending granny cards.

I am young 30 and I always send thank you notes. I was just raised that way by my mom and I enjoy doing it. I expect them too but if I don’t get them I don’t disown the person but I may be less inclined to do stuff for them in the future. If I don’t get thanked at all meaning no in person thank you, no note, no call, no email-then that will be the last thing you ever get from me.

If she’s addressing her great grandchildren she can’t possibly be the mother of their mothers. What a prick.
