How about a “Hate the Press Day,” when people fire off scorching emails and tweets to the most perverse member of the sad-sack media, whose main purpose in life is to make others miserable for feeling happy?

It is time to get rid of Mother’s Day, decades past time actually. Not for any of the reasons above but because it became stupid and commercial and pointless.

>http://charltonteaching.blogspot.com/2014/07/diversity-destruction.html<

...Diversity is an anti-religion, and anti-ideology, a nepotism which promotes everything except one’s own family. 

Diversity therefore equals the destruction of any and all religions and of all positive ideologies.

Because Diversity can only be destructive: whatever IS is insufficiently or inexactly diverse. 
Whatever IS must therefore be destroyed in order to make it MORE Diverse. 
And there is no conceivable or measurable end to it. Yesterday’s Diversity is today’s intolerable lack of Diversity.

Diversity is the destruction of Good; and it is the destruction of all types of Good - however defined. All are chewed up and spat out by Diversity.

Diversity is the promotion of chaos by the destruction of Good; and then there-naming of chaos as Good.

I don’t see the commercial aspect at all. It’s not over commercialized, but that’s not why they oppose it: it’s because it’s about NORMAL motherhood (I include adoption in that).
Right. And there should NOT be a day for dickchoppers, surrogate “mothers” and other perversions.

Remember what Michelle Obama said: Barak has a lot of work to do the change our history and traditions.

I think that is now the mantra of the Demoncrats.

Mother’s day is the busiest restaurant day of the year. Scrapping it would lose millions of dollars for the restaurant industry and their employees.

“Some of these parents have even begun advocating online for the creation of a brand new holiday to recognize parents who aren’t male or female.”

No such thing.

I didn’t fully realize the importance of a Mothers’ Day remembrance until I became a mother.

Every year, Mother’s Day — and Father’s Day... — are ridiculed

By who? That's the first I've ever heard of it.

It can be tough for those of us who never had children to be wished “Happy Mothers Day” just because we’re females of child bearing age. For a while it was a very painful reminder of the child I lost to miscarriage.

However, I have learned to gracefully say “thank you”, and move on. Why should all of the other mothers in the world have their day taken away because I’m not one and we aren’t wearing identification badges?

Yet again one one person, or a small group doe snot like something they want it banned, or removed. On the other hand people on the right don;t like something , and we just ignore it, or stay away , thus giving freedom to enjoy their’s .

The left have become the National Socialist party, and for any trolls reading this from the fringe element of the left , that means the NAZI party, for it is you who are closing down free speech, having monuments removed, and rioting when others have a different opinion to you.

My dad died when I was in high school. I never protested Father’s Day. It was what it was. Why should I deny a day of celebration for others who still had their dad? Of course this was 1968 so I was not as “enlightened” as today’s youth.
It does annoy me when so many holidays morph into rabid consumerism such as Memorial Day and annual mattress sales.

I think it’s time to get rid of Cinco de Mayo.

Think they would go along with that?

I am NOT a snowflake, but as a mother who lost her only child, I find all of the Mother’s Day hype, i.e., Hallmark, retail stores, etc. hard to take. It is like a knife through my heart.
