I would like to be acknowledged on mother’s day, but I have never spent mother’s day with my children.
I would have kept my kid home with me and took the keys to the car and left if he wants to see his mom then she can come pick him up
It’s not wrong for him to want to spend time with his Mom on Mother’s Day.
That’s his Mom!
You are not his Mom.
At the same time, he should also have done something nice for you as well.
A dinner out, just something.
I’d never expect my husband to not see his Mom on Mother’s Day.
I also don’t go anymore to their functions.
My husband cooked lunch for his mom and who ever else showed up at her home.
Came home and cooked for me and my grown children.
Been a Mom for 37 years, married 40 next month.
He won’t have his mom as long as he will have you more than likely.
You should have spoke up when they were planting trees, and have been just responsible for your child/children, no one else’s.
Sometimes you have to put your foot down.
Can’t split the day or compromise and alternate? This year she picked, next year you do. You are both Mother’s and should be honored. I assume your Mother is gone because you didn’t mention her but if not, she should be included too.
My hubby would never put his mom over me. Yes she is his mom, but he made me a mother.
No, your not wrong, He could of went and took his mom out to dinner, on the day before, and spent time with his mom. Then he could of spent time with the mother of his child. I think your husband was disrespectful, and needs a kick in his ass.
My ex never celebrated Mothers day for me because he said I wasn’t his mother… my kids picked up on it and just let the day go… is there most over hyped, over commercialized “holiday” I hate it…

I am in agreement with you wholeheartedly and if I were u I’d tell him he’s an idiot and see where it goes from there.
You’re mother in law needs to realize that there are other people in this world that are just as deserving as she is of the love and respect that mothers should get. All mothers!
Mother’s Day can be any Day you and your Husband pick! Not necessarily what day is on the Calendar! It’s how he treats you the rest of the year that really shows how much he appreciate’s you or not! Plan a day your family can do something special together before Mother’s Day. A day is a day spending time in our lives. One day, there will be no more days.
Sounds like your husband is a big ol’ Mama’s boy. You did nothing wrong. You shouldn’t have to kowtow to the MIL every year.

Nope. But you’re going to have to figure out a way to share the day. Shouldn’t be to hard if husband helps.
Girl I felt this post so bad, I been a mom for 6 years too and it’s been ALL about his mom. I did the same thing this year except his ass stayed home with the kids and I wanted him to take them and leave and go to his mom’s. He refused cuz then HE’D have to watch the kids instead of me. F*** that. Good for you. I’m proud of you and happy you for you for getting to spend it alone and get time to yourself.
All I have to say is you better enjoy the parents while they are alive. Don’t make it a choose me or her day. I say selfish but I lost all my parents and in laws in 83 I was 21, so I miss them all the time on all holidays and would give anything to celebrate the special days with them and making it all about them. Why be selfish.
Wow. There’s no way I could handle that. You are the mother of his children. If he doesn’t care for you on mothers day, your children won’t either. He needs to put you first.
He should’ve made it special for the both of you (the mother of his children) and his own mother.
Next year keep your child with you. My daughter-in-law is very selfish and my son has to spend the day with her family.
I think he shoulda got you a bouquet of flowers, and I also think he should spend time with HIS mother on mother’s day…That’s 1 day outta the year and that is his mother…I don’t get to see my son that often but I know I will see him on Mother’s Day and Father’s Day cause I had to be both…
Invite her to your home from now on By your hubby honoring his mother for Mother’s Day. He is teaching his children to honor you . Do Mother’s Day for her the weekend before or the weekend after Mother’s Day. I would tell her you want the Mother’s Day with your children that she has had. No biggie
Compromise and do the Saturday before as your mother’s day then Sunday do mothers day with his mother!

I can’t believe all the whiny little kids on this post. It’s a day. Do it last week. Do it next week. Do it Saturday. The point is to get together. Does it really matter whether it’s the mother, mother-in-law, grandmother, great-grandmother? Are you all so paranoid that not having Mother’s Day all to yourself is a deal breaker? If you think he’s abusing you on Mother’s Day, he probably doesn’t treat you very well any OTHER day. Maybe you shouldn’t stay married to such a slug. If he treats you well the rest of the time, why so whiny about the time he spends with his mother on Mother’s Day? If he’s always selfish, get out. You shouldn’t have married him in the first place. People have lives. What would you do if he was working shifts and had to work on Mother’s Day? What if he was a trucker, out of town? Deployed? Not everything is going to happen right on schedule on whatever day you think is “proper”. And what goes around comes around. Whatever will you do when YOUR kids grow up, have spouses, have kids, have jobs and schedules of their own? Will you be team players or will you STILL be whining about ME! ME! ME!? Grow up and pretend you are adults. By the way, what happens on Father’s Day? Eventually the older generation won’t be around to interfere in your holidays anymore. What kind of memories do you want for your family?
Ok now here’s my real advice: it sucks that your husband makes it all about his mom and doesn’t give you any consideration I feel ya, girl. Been married for 33 years to a mama’s boy and lost my own mom in 2007.
Let him take the kids to see his mama and have a spa day. Get them all out of your hair and spoil yourself. If he doesn’t like it, too bad. Life is too short to harbor resentment.
Honey your problem isn’t your M-I-L it’s the man still attached to her placenta

You’re not wrong and he’s a momma’s boy, I’m sorry, but that only gets worse and worse
Hope your son is good to you when he is older. Like your hubby is to his Mom. You will deserve it. Your hubby is awful treating you like that.
I am 63 years old, I have had 2 Mother in laws, trust me, you’ll never cut the cord from a momma’s baby! Just sit back, bide your time, and wait!
I cannot believe this… MY EX HUSBAND IS BACK TO ME!!!
This is a story of Doctor Durojiaye who brought my ex husband back to me in 3 days of contact. He told me me he would do it but i didn’t believe him but decided to give him a try and to my greatest surprise, my ex husband came home and started playing with the kids and gave me a kiss on my cheek, knelt down on his knees and begged me for leaving without a goodbye. I heard he had woman he was seeing before he left me and i was devastated which made me seek help in a spell caster such as Doctor Durojiaye I also met this man through a testimony about him and i contacted his email at
Drdurojiayelovesspell@gmail.com and when i explained things to him, he told me not to worry. I am very happy today that my husband who left me for over 2 years, came back home. I asked him what about the other woman and he said that was his past and nothing will ever make him leave again. I am thankful to Dr Durojiaye . Contact him to help you now at

When I was with my ex for 7 years, i was always expected to at his mom’s every fucking holiday. He wouldn’t alternate either. He did go to a few holidays but all 7 years he wanted to mostly be at his mom’s. I suggested we alternate. Share holidays with each others families. He didn’t want to. I finally said enough. I said i was done going and that i will alternate the holidays. I did christmas with my mom then the next year would be with his mom. I was polite and explained to his mom that I would be alternating holidays but i would send a card and sometimes flowers. His mom did understand though.
I would have slapped his face. Asshole
I think he is on the wrong. Your the mother of his children and needs to show his appreciation one day out of the whole year. You are his family and created his family! My dude tries doing this with everything bdays valentine’s Xmas etc. But says he’s just not good at it. Smh. Well if I didn’t get him shit I’d be the end of the world. I am realizing I don’t mean shit to him but free daycare
Shame on your husband
Explain this one Sat night before Mother’s Day I kept 2 grandchildren I love beyond words thinking that Sunday afternoon me and my daughter were going to have a mother’s day lunch together, got a text Sunday morning at 815 am that dad was on his way to pick up the kids have them packed up they were going out on a friend’s fishing boat I had to break my back to have them All packed up, Dad made sure they wished Nana a Happy Mother’s Day but he never said jack shit to me I was not Invited to go on the boat would have loved to go still having a problem with this never make waves can’t seem to get past this major hurt
Brooke Corso. So I’m not the only mom who wants my own day.
