My WH's birthday is this month. I was just wondering what I should do? I am not giving him ANYTHING but what should I do about my son? I really don't want to spend any money buying him anything for my son to give him. Do I just ignore it totally or what? I'm confused on this one!

Hallmark Ecards are brilliant for your son to send. As for the gift, your son can buy him a pocket money gift if he so chooses; if not don't fret about it. TT

You should take your son out and give him $5.00 - $10.00 and have him pick something out for hsi dad and let him give it to him. Do not get involved. Or have your son make him a card or something. But let it be only son's choice. That is what I used to do with my kids - it was t=for them and only them. Makes them feel good.

Tree-
That was going to be my suggestion too. Just tell Cam "Your Dad's birthday is coming up, would you like to make him something?" And leave it up to whatever he decides.

realtor...good idea. I'll let my son buy him something for him if he chooses to. If not then he can make him a card.
TT....ecard is a good idea too.

Thanks Caren.....that's what I'll do!
I even offered for my WH to trade days so that he can spend his b-day with Cam. He said no thanks. I thought that was crappy!!!!!!! I guess he'll be spending it with the OW (Mrs. Grudge)LOL!
