Dear Amy: I’ve come to increasingly view Mother’s Day with sadness.
If we’re parents, are we only supposed to celebrate our own parents? What about grandparents?Is it OK to spend Mother’s Day crying in your car, as you grieve the loss of a child — or your own mother?
If children don’t contact parents on this day, how bad are parents permitted to feel, and if you do feel bad, should you diminish your own feelings as being embarrassing, unimportant, and “self-centered?” However, if we order something that we simply can’t eat or truly don’t enjoy , we send it back and ask for something else.
