19 days agoI work at a children’s museum. We do free admission for all mothers on Mother’s Day. Same for fathers on Father’s Day. We include all self-identified “mother figures” and “father figures”. That means lots of grandparents, but also sometimes older siblings, aunts/uncles, quite a few LGBTQ+ parents who don’t necessarily fit the common biological definition of mother/father. Let’s celebrate the people who nurture us, which can include our biological family, our chosen family, or both.
We’re not close in my family, so nothing. Which i find sad, but thats how it is. If I had a better relationship with my parents then would certainly do at least a call. My grandparents on my dad’s side died while I was young. Never met my grandparents on my mom’s side.
