Just a thought...do you think it's acceptable for your husband to fly home to be with his mother and siblings on Mother's Day instead of with his wife and kids?

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

No. We all love our mothers and siblings. But to me the order is God, Wife, Kids, Other family, Friends. I'd be offended as a mother and wife. He could always call her, send her a card...etc. Picking you should be an easy choice.
My dad means well but when its mother days he makes my mom go to brunch with his mother and the other aunts instead of giving her, her own special brunch...etc for the two of them. Well or with me too obviously.

If you want him to be there for you, no.
If you want to live self-sacrificially, yes.
If there's deeper issues, well, maybe that's what this is really about.
I'm not exactly sure how God ordained Mother's Day.
Personally, I'm a pretty simple husband and just might pick based upon a) the meal and b) the lack of drama of the conversation with it.
Alternatively, I might try to please everybody.
Hard to say.
Thanks for reminding me though, I need to fix the dryer, fix the computer, buy my wife and stepmom some flowers and do a few other things too.
