Have your parents ever forgotten your birthday?

My birthday is 12 days after my sister's birthday, so no. Also, we have a family tradition that I insist we keep for each birthday. Whoever's birthday it is, they get to choose where we, take them out for dinner. The birthday boy, girl, man, or woman chooses the restaurant. My mother was in charge of the planning and remembering. When she died, it fell to me because my father can't remember anything, especially his anniversary or his anniversary with my step-mother [after mom died]. We now go in two groups, because with my sister and nieces and everyone else, it's hard to coordinate. But we've maintained this tradition since I was at least five, approaching 40 years now. My dad still cannot remember anything. He passed his first Business Organizing Scheduling System [64k] an early PDA by Casio, on to me. He still can't remember anything.

Any time I think they may be forgetting it, I remind them over and over starting a week or two beforehand.

bad as my dad's memory is, no never forgot his 1st born's bday.😃

child please

I am experiencing it right now. Today is my birthday. And my father has not said a thing yet. However, he did tell me all about the great wedding my stepsister had in Hawaii while I was downstairs eating dinner for an hour. Really identifying with the movie right now

"Oh my God! You put a living room where the crack den used to be!"

Nope, they never did.
