[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 538855, member: 59"] Witz is right, it's time to put you and your husband first. I don't know why your family is not recognizing the important days in your life but if I were you I would stop going out of my way to do nice things for people who don't respect me or treat me with simple considerations. I don't get brithday cards or calls from my sister or dad but it was because of a falling out a couple years ago so I understand. That relationship will never be repaired. But for family members who have no reason for treating you that way the best way to deal with them is to stop the effort that you are making toward them. Perhaps when their special day goes by without being recognized they will stop and think. I know it sounds as if I am holding grudges or getting even but I'm really not. I just see no reason to set myself up for diappointment with people who could care less about me. Happy Belated Birthday! My husband's birthday is today. I'm sure he will not get a call or text from difficult child. Nancy [/QUOTE]
