Don’t get him anything for Father’s Day and tell him you’re not as he’s not your father
Spend money on yourself. I know it’s not the same but its better then accepting the fact that he’s ignoring you. Buy WHATEVER you want and then make a big deal about it being your mother’s day gift to yourself since you have an unthoughtful husband and giiiiiirl don’t you DARE get him anything for Father’s day. When he asks why not you tell him he ain’t your father. He wants to go out for Father’s day with the boys? Sorry he aint your dad so he doesn’t get that right.

Mine always says it and i dont get anything so i do same on fathers day
Once my husband got me cheap Walmart flowers and a bag of Hersey kisses for my birthday. No thought whatsoever… when his birthday came around i got him the exact same thing. Made mention of how super easy and thoughtless it was. Every since then he’s tried a little harder

Wow! He’s absolutely correct you are not his mother. How ever you have given him two wonderful gifts and are raising a 3rd gift from somebody else. He needs to step it up.

If your kids are too young to do it on their own, it’s their job. No mom in the history of parenthood has ever said that!
Hell, my ex-husband bought flowers and a card for my kids to give to me for years, AND WE BARELY TALK! Their great-aunt (dad’s aunt) took them shopping for me for Christmas. It wasn’t her responsibility but she wanted to help them.

Mother’s Day is about celebrating mothers. It doesn’t have to be YOUR mother. My grandma wasn’t my mom, but we always gave her something for Mother’s Day. Same thing for my best friend - we always exchanged a little something too. Your man is being a douche.

Even though you are not his mother, you are the mother to 2 of his children. And a mother figure to his other child. He could at least take the 4 kiddos and buy you the hammock to be from them for Mother’s Day. If not I wouldn’t buy him anything for Father’s Day and if he questions it I would just simply say that he wasn’t your father. My husband who is my kiddos stepdad always makes sure the kids have something for me for Mother’s Day. And I always make sure they have him something for Father’s Day.

I mean I probably wouldn’t be offended myself.
But I also just got gifts for 2 of my ex’s moms(my kids grandmas), one of I’ve my ex’s sisters(my sons aunt), my boyfriends mom, my mom, and my ex’s current girlfriend who is pregnant with my daughters second brother(and has my sons daughter left brother) 
I’m excessive.
But I just say don’t give him anything for father day and see how that goes. 
If that’s his attitude, which is assnine, make an appointment at a spa you like and have the works, charge it, then order yourself something wonderful for dinner, come home and hand him the receipt, and say, thanks for my gift! And nothing more!

Everyday is "mothers " day . I have realized so on Mothers day , I want my alone time, myself care and much needed break from being a mother everyday . I leave the kid at home and spend a day out by myself or with my best girlfriend . Leave him home with all the kids and take a spa day. That is a true mommy’s day😅

My SO buys me Mother’s Day gifts, we have almost 5 kids together and I always buy him fathers days gifts. Since you know, he’s the father of my children.

First off, your husband sounds like a jerk. Mother’s Day is to celebrate all mothers in one’s life; not just your own. 
My husband would never say something ignorant like this to me.
Second, leave the kids with him. Go have a nice breakfast or lunch with your girlfriends or by yourself. Get your nails done, or go get a nice massage, or do both. Maybe do a little shopping. Take the day to relax and do something for yourself.

Unreal. I have been a mother for 7 years. Been with my man for 9.5 married for 5. I have never received a happy Mother’s Day let alone a gift. Why? Because he shows his appreciation of me every day of the dam year. Some woman are very selfish cruel and heartless

Honestly I tell my husband to focus more on his mom on Mother’s Day than me, yes I birthed his children but Mother’s Day in my opinion is for your mom that birthed you, not who had your children… I expect him to do something with the kids for me for Mother’s Day but he him self I do not expect anything from🤷🏻♀️ I know he’s going to get me something anyways but I encourage him not to do that and focus on his momma💛
My dad always said that to my mom growing up, it did hurt her feelings but he’d at least get her a card cause that’s really all she wanted. So I get where your coming from. I guess it just depends on how you feel about it, either way however you feel is valid and I’d just explain that to him so maybe he understands better why your upset.

I’d buy what I want for me and say it’s from my kids. Then I wouldn’t get him anything for father’s day. No need to argue or fight. He’s being a jerk, but you are able to get what you want. You just don’t have to work about him messing your gift up. It’s easier to rely on yourself anyway.

We will be married 20 years in August and I generally buy my own gift when I buy for our mother’s if I see something I like as well, sometimes I don’t. Sometimes he gets a Father’s Day gift, sometimes he doesn’t. Neither of us care either way because the quality of a marriage has zero to do with the gifts bought for random holidays. Y’all need to have better priorities.

Nope. If he doesn’t get you a Mother’s Day gift. He doesn’t get a Fathers Day gift or anything for he’s birthday and Christmas as well. Not even a happy birthday just ignored for the whole day.

I think alike. Mother’s day is only for your mother and father’s day only for your father, in my opinion.
Tell him jes doing a great job at teaching his kids how to respect their mother… on the ONE day dedicated to you hes gonna be an anus, take the card and leave all the kids with him and buy yourself something nice, like a new dress or man or nails etc what ever your heart desires…

If he’s not considering that at least the five year old would enjoy picking out a bouquet of flowers for you, then he’s an ass.
My husband said the same thing, and we’ve been married over 50 years. It’s pretty much an asshole remark. Until the children are old enough to shop by themselves with their own money, he needs to step up. The 3 year old is old enough to learn how good it is to give to someone else. Also, Father’s Day is coming, and turnabout is fair play.
He should get you something from the “kids” that’s horrible he doesn’t think like that. My kids are all under 6 and he will buy me something from them as they are to little. Or even have them make a card. It’s just a nice thing to do. I’m sorry this is happening to you. So happy mothers day for Sunday!! From me to you. You should be appreciated and be able to enjoy mothers day.

I love to hear all the different perceptions of this! In our home, daddy used to take our kids to store and/or make something. It was from the kids with dad’s help. Once they got a little older, they starting wanting to use their own hard earned money to buy/make something for me. As far as their dad/my husband, he always gives me something small as an appreciation for being the Momma of his children. In turn , Father’s day is played the same way.

My husband said the same thing. But I always go all out for him for birthday, anniversary, fathers day etc.
Perhaps this is an unpopular opinion… But i think its rude that you are telling what gift to get you. You should be happy and grateful to receive whatever comes your way. Perhaps he also considers it rude and that is why he said what he said.

I have a totally different stance on this topic. Hear me out… yes! You deserve to be treated like a queen every day and Mother’s Day! However… it’s not always about gifts. They can be great though! I was previously married, we had a child together… he threw gifts at me and never spent quality time. Fast forward, we divorced. He gets me not even a card from our son. Every year I still get him a little something like his favorite cake in a very small size. Not bc I give a rats behind about him, but bc I want my son to see that I try to be a good person and hopefully my son will pick up these behaviors as well and know to celebrate Father’s Day for his father when he is older enough to do so. My current husband pulls out all the stops all day every day! He does get a gift from my kiddos and respectfully acknowledges why I do what I do for my ex. I would take my kids and do something fun or do a fun project together or a craft. Make a memory! It’s much better then a card that will get thrown away or put in a box somewhere! Be the bigger person and don’t treat him as he is treating you. You have little people looking up to you! 
Happy Mothers Day, I hope you can make the best of it!

Any man worth raising a child/children with would at least help the children make a card or get some flowers ect… . I would not say anything more ( maybe he is going to suprise you ) I would just wait and if he doesn’t do anything, then go have a day with the kids and your mom if poss or family and or friends. If he doesn’t do anything then you can forget fathers day and make sure to take yourself for a great dinner on Father’s Day as well .
You are the mother of his children. He should dam well do whatever it is that you wish for. Along with his mother aswel. And you are step mother to his child too!
It’s not called only my Mother’s Day. It’s Mother’s Day meaning all moms. But seriously if he follows through then do the same for him on Father’s Day.

Go get yourself a gift, you really don’t need any man regardless if he’s your husband to give you a gift! Personally, I don’t care whether mines gets me a gift never really was a gift material individual for special days but if I needed a gift for a special occasion I’d get it myself.

I will never understand men who feel this way. You are the mother of his children, your husband should get you something for Mother’s Day and it should be something nice. There is nothing wrong with giving him and idea of what you want. Men are dense, they need to be told what you want. And all that “you’re being rude for asking for something and just be grateful for what you get” is bullshit. Being a mother is the hardest job there is and we deserve to be pampered.
Well then, on Mother’s Day, leave the kids with him and spend the weekend at a hotel and pamper yourself. Or spend the day buying whatever you want, take yourself out for breakfast, lunch, dinner, dessert, and drinks! Buy yourself flowers and a huge ass card saying your the best mom ever!
If men have nothing else, they have the audacity
