The child is NOT in Plan B and thus is exempt from no contact with the WS parent. If the child wishes to acknowledge the WS parent's b-day, then the BS should assist the child in contacting the WS parent and assist the child in purchasing a gift for the WS parent. If the BS choses to do otherwise, then the BS is willfully chosing to damage the relationship between the WS parent and the child.
