I didn’t know quite where to put this thread. I am estranged from my eldest son and have been for about 10 yrs - who knows why, I don’t - moving on.
My youngest son and family live in Oz and have always acknowledged Mother's Day albeit here or Oz. This year, for the first time ever, MD not acknowledged. Feel a bit hurt - should I say something/anything?

No - say nothing. Least said soonest mended. Try not to fret about it .

My experience of estrangement is that it makes you anxious about all relationships. I'm sure your son just forgot - there is nothing more to it than that. Don't say anything - that could just cause tensions that don't currently exist

I understand your sadness and hurt, BUT, say nothing, just endure your son and family are all well and stable and move on as if nothing has happened flowers
