Of course,a man. Instead of worring about Mothers Day, he should worry about some man issue. Men try to pretend only women has emotional issues always blaimed on PMS.(Dont get me wrong, I like useing PMS for every bad day and extra pounds)Men in this world have many issues that could use some real investigating ie. all these fatherless children and jobless dudes.

well in a way he is right everyday is mothers day, but we need to have one day out of the year so we can get pampered.

I would suggest that this is a children's holiday. Husbands shouldn't give wives presents. It's MOTHER"S day.

My question is does he want Fathers Day canceled. My Mother just passed away and I would give anything in this world to tell her I love her and for here to be here on this day that is just for her. We should remember them ever day and we do but some times we take things for granted. This is just a day that is set aside to remember and to say thanks for all that they do for use not only this day but for all the days that they stand by use. To my Mother I love you with all my heart and for the other mothers thanks for all you do for your kids. Please do not take this day for granted and make it special for all mothers.

Happy Mothers
Day

DO NOT CANCEL MOTHER'S DAY!!!!! I absolutely love showing my mom how much my brother and I appreciate everything she's ever done for us. Besides, it's one of the few Sundays out of the year when I don't mind missing church.

i believe this day should be celebrated. us as woman deserve it more than ever. u men should thank us that we care ur offspring for 9 months. we go though pain everyday while doing it. so yes we should have this one day. if anybody shoud not celebrate one day a year i think it should be fathers day. they do not go though the pains we do every day of our kids lifes. so please if u think moms around the world should not have a day to them selves then think again.

Your comments: Mother's Day reminds me of how much I miss my Mom and wish I could
still buy her a card and a gift and tell her how much I appreciated
evetything she did for me all year. My husband doesn't celebrate it
because I'm not his Mom and likewise for Father's Day. But my sons
give me cards and take me out to dinner. I, too looked forward to
their little self-made gifts when they were small. They were so
excited and it was so hard to keep the secret of what they had done.

In recognizing traditions - No GOD first (unless it is behind some closed doors) - now No Mothers (I guess we will whisper that next)!

YES, it is a male to get rid of Mom's Day. then get of Dad's day first. and most important, charge all the winers $100 to go to a ball game, $50 to park, and $250 for Football game.let us make it $25 for beer, the point I am making is: Mom's day is more important, vs abunch of pigs getting together watching Football. mine it women are in on it too. I belive less > Men.

Yes, Mom's day is number one before Football for 26 weeks every Football Sunday is a Holiday

Just wait, as you get older the cards and phone calls will mean just as much to you as they do to us moms.

MOTHER'S DAY IS SPECIAL, NO MATTER WHAT, ITS NOT ABOUT HALLMARK, ITS ABOUT CELEBRATING THE 'MOTHER' FACTOR IN WHOMEVER YOU MAY HAVE IN YOUR LIFE. WE CANT EVER GET TO THE POINT WHERE WE STOP CELEBRATING THE SIGNIFICANCE OF ONE ANOTHER. INSTEAD OF TAKING MOTHER'S DAY, ADD A DAY FOR WHO YOU THINK SHOULD BE RECOGNIZED. YOU DONT NEED SOCIETY'S PERMISSION FOR THAT. ITS A PURELY INDIVIDUAL THING.THERE ARE WAY TOO MANY REASONS TO UPLIFT AND CELEBRATE LIFE IN GENERAL, TO ALLOW OURSELVES TO BECOME BITTER AND RESENTFUL OF DAYS SET ASIDE TO REMIND, OBSERVE, AND RESPECT THE CONTRIBUTIONS, THE SACRIFICES, THAT HAVE BEEN MADE. MOTHERHOOD IS A WONDERFUL, AND PRIVILEDGED THING TO EXPERIENCE, BUT SO IS FATHERHOOD, SISTERHOOD, BROTHERHOOD, FRIENDSHIP, THE LIST GOES ON. WHEN WE START CHIPPING AWAY AT ACKNOWLEDGING THE SIMPLEST, BASIC THINGS, WHAT IS GOING TO BE LEFT? THERE ARE NO PARENTING EXPERTS, BY THE WAY. YOU CANNOT BE AN EXPERT AT SOMETHING THAT IS CONSTANTLY, EVOLVING, AND GROWING, AND MOVING. YOU MAY HAVE A MORE SUCCESSFUL METHOD OF DEALING WITH A PARTICULAR SITUATION, BUT TO THINK THAT YOU HAVE ATTAINED SOME 'EXPERTISE' AT SOMETHING THAT YOU CANT POSSIBLY EXPERIENCE FOR SOMEONE ELSE, MERELY SHOWS THAT YOU ARE ON YOUR WAY TO REALIZING ONE DAY THAT WITH ALL THE FACTS YOU HAVE GATHERED, WITH ALL THE DATA AND STUDIES, THE BOOKS YOU HAVE READ, YOU KNOW ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ME. AND TO ANYONE ELSE IT APPLIES TO.

Cancel Mother's Day! No, absolutely not. I am going bowling with my 15 year old son and his friends. How cool is that??? My son is paying for the bowling and Pizza. I love Father's Day as well. I enjoy setting aside a day just for my hubby to show him how much we appreciate what he does for us. He is a great Dad, and together we make a great team. What is this world coming to. Are there really that many selfish people out ther who don't care anymore. I love my Mom and I don't have a problem letting her know it.

I love mother's day! I don't want to see it go. It is the only day that I get a bit of peace and quiet! Mom can do what ever she wants on that day and it is ok. I love the stuff my kids make. They are so adorable when they bring home the popsicle stick frame complete with picture or a marigold plant in a paper cup decorated by them. Go pick on secretaries day or grandparents day and leave mother's day and father's day alone please.

No way. Yes every day should be Mother's Day and that is the way I treated my Mother but I also think it is nice to have a special day as some people are so busy they cannot treat their mothers every day but can on Mother's Day. Doesn't this Hl Runkel have anything else to worry about or maybe he should just retire and leave things alone. We have enough experts that mess everything up we do not need him

If you do not want to celebrate then don't. But don't expect the rest of us to go along with you. There is nothing wrong with spending time with yours kids. They don't mind making breakfast or getting you that Hallmark card. Next you will want to get rid of July 4th, Thanksgiving and Christmas. Nothing wrong with a day for mother's who give of themselves 364 days a year. People lighten up.

Where did this person come from that wants to stop Mother's Day "MEXICO"? Seem like the illegal immigrants wants the American people to do what they want and they don't even belong her.

I myself am not a mom, but my godchild has remembered me every Mothers Day which I see as a blessing and do enjoy. The thing that bothers me the most though about mothers day is that fathers day is not treated as equally. We make a big deal about mothers day, what to get our moms, be sure to call or visit and if possible a free meal, and be sure and make it her day! What she wants to do. How many people also treat their dads that way on fathers day? When I go to work the day after fathers day and ask the married men how was their DAY? They laugh and say right fathers day you know what I got to do on my day? Then proceed to tell me how it went which usually sounds like any other day.

good old USA and sepeak, English, whom is this redneck speking too?
This is about Respecting Mom's day and not getting rid of this special Day, as fair as companies making money, how do we Employed People?

Fact is: this absolulty have nothing to do with your out berst pig heades tranditional point of view, Mom's day is a special day around the world. and one is saying go to another country, whom ever is complaning shell be the one to go to where ever was to be mantion.

Those Ladies that born kids go thru 9 months that us Men will never experience. therfore, Mom's day could had been better off when the pig headed men are watching football for 26 weeks, hasseling waitres.

Those pigs that want to get rid of holidays, then lets cancell 26 weeks of football. that way, women are not waiting on us, evem if it is men, their is always a wife, girlfiend, Mom sis and so on that hates football. I see men chassing a stupid football and women waiting and or cleaning up after them,
