You need to be GRATEFUL for the fact that you were thought of by those who DID (out of the generosity of their hearts) give you presents on your birthday -- and that is for sure.
Like others, there are good birthdays and bad birthdays ... let me tell you of one miserable one .. where a so-called 'spouse' (and I was in a short disaster of a marriage to an abusive, violent sociopath) decided to 'reappear' on my birthday (after disappearing for a few weeks), and as a result, this day -- I was abused, had the windows of my car punched out, had the door of the car damaged/bent/almost torn off, and just BARELY Escaped with the lives of myself and my toddlers. We were covered with shattered glass when I drove up to the hospital -- for this soon-to-be ex was so violent that he put his fist through the windows of the car, shattering the glass as I was driving my vehicle away to ESCAPE.
Needless to say, this is a TRUE Story -- I filed the police reports, I used this as one of many reasons to get and obtain the divorce, and I walked away from EVERYTHING That I EARNED at the time ... (and I was the wage-earner).
And ... I am NOT the only one who has SURVIVED attacks on their birthday by their ex-partners or ex-spouses -- over the years since (I'm a Long Term Single Parent, and now .. an Empty-Nesting Retiree) ... I have volunteered to help out and donate to shelters for OTHERS to survive as well, and the pattern repeats through so many other bad relationships.
So before one complains about how they "Got loads of rubbish presents" ... one needs to think of those who are just barely surviving, those who leave with nothing but the clothing on their backs, those who EARN (through their hard work) what they have, and who have to WALK AWAY from everything to just have LIFE.
Be thankful for so many BLESSINGS in your life at this time of your life. Things could be so much worse, and ...
Although you may not appreciate your mum at this time of your life .. she is SACRIFICING so much to care and love you .. and you do NOT realize it!

Forgive me for saying so but you seem like a bit of a spoiled, unapreciable, self absorbed little brat, you say that you received loads of rubish presents, how sad that you can't see the real gifts here, that people actually think enough of you to give you presents on your birthday and if you think that your mom didn't make any effort this year maybe it's because in previous years when she did, it was never good enough for you.
I do not know what is going on in your life but before you start whinig about how bad your birthday was think of all of the other people who don't receive presents on their birthday because their parents have been killed in some insane tribal war, or some one child has had their hands blown off because someone booby trapped her toys, do you think that she wouldn't love to be able to rip open her presents no matter what she received.
Perhaps if you changed your attitude around the house and your family, be nice and helpful with everyone, don' throw those silly little emotional tantrums when you don't get your own way, show your folks how much you love them, instead of allways trying to attract everyones attention all of the time be an attention giver, your home is your grearest place of power if you do not have harmoney and peace there then the energy is negative and everyone argues nobody relaxes or re-energizes and all get stressed out.
Count your blessings for they are many enjoy you family now, while you can, because when your parents die you will cry for years.

Oh boo hoo you in easy terms have been given a telephone to your birthday. be pleased with what you have and stop whining you spoiled little brat. Your dad and mom in all probability pay for each little thing on your existence and could proceed to till you're out of school, so be quiet. My dad and mom have not paid for something of mine greater effective than a haircut on account that i replaced into 13. attempt to stop mooching off of your dad and mom and being a brat and actually do some thing your self.

Grow up. The world does not revolve around you. If your mom is financially lacking why don't you do something to make her feel better? Why didn't you do something nice for the two of you on the day that SHE gave you life?

When my mum forgot it was my birthday because she was too wrapped up in her new boyfriend. She reckons she was "pretending" to give me a suprise party later that afternoon when I got home from school. Load of crap.
