This year when visiting a friend another woman related her experience with her son...and she could have been mirroring the experience you ladies tell of.Then my friend said her son forgot her birthday..so she asked if he ever forgot to go to the dentist..he had said no...his teeth teeth were important..she then asked him to write in his diary when her birthday was..calmly and no further debate...He got the message.

That day I heard of many hurts..and sat quietly..but in respect to my son and his Father I said to both the women that I was sorry they were hurting but both my grown children did show kindness and respect and that it would be wrong if I sat silent.And that I was grateful.I do this here also..not to be anything other than honest.

We as women deserve to be treated with basic good manners..its essential for our wellbeing.
