Genuinely interested to hear feedback.

If a man has a wife and 2 very young children (and his mother doesn't like his wife so there's no option of all being together) should he be spending Mother's Day with the mother of his kids and making it special for her or should he be spending it with his own mother and visiting with her/taking her out for the day?

Loaded question from OP with predictable results.hmm
Hope all the Mothers Day stuff is now safely behind us.

While I am a mum, I am a Gran too, and there is now a Grandmother's Day.
My children do pop a bunch of flowers in, but DD and DIL get the rest of the day, and I am more than happy with that. (MILs and DM are both gone, but would have been invited to come for lunch in later years.)
