Dear Queenie,
My daughter is very good about remembering my birthday and Mothers Day and Christmas, but she always forgets my anniversary. I always remind her when it is coming up, but she just ignores it.
Queenie, what’s going on with her?—Annoyed mother
Dear Mother,
Is there something about your marriage that your daughter does not wish to acknowledge? Are (or were) there problems in your marriage such that she considers celebrating an anniversary to be hypocritical? Were you widowed or divorced and now your daughter feels that your current marriage is an insult to her father’s memory?
Whatever her reason for forgetting or ignoring your anniversary, concentrate on the occasions she does remember and be grateful for that.
