My baby girl just turned 17. It was a difficult day for her. Not only did her party get cancelled but she felt abandoned by her friends. I wish I could take that pain away and somehow make her realize that birthdays are just another day. It ended up on a good note. The local family came for dinner, we had a great time and I think she felt better.
Personally I hate my birthday. I would like to not care about whether it's celebrated or not. It's not the aging that bothers me it's feeling like it should be this grand celebration and it never lives up to my expectations. I don't even know what my expectations are anymore so I would just love to not care whether I have a birthday.
I do, however love to celebrate with other people. GO figure.
