When Parents disagree…
I forgot to buy a present for my daughters friend. Her mom isn’t happy. explained that I’m going through a divorce and court dates, etc. I’m overwhelmed…and only human. Besides - what are we teaching our children? If my daughter asks where is her gift from so and so I’d remind her that they are her friend and they came to her party. That is the gift. I was taught to appreciate every gesture and to not only be concerned with gifts…
So now I feel bad. Add that onto the evergrowing list of things I suck at. There’s nothing I can do now except give the late gift. offer more apologies and hope the mom gets over it. And if not…well. Too bad for her.
