10 Worst Mother's Day Gifts!

An e-card
While they used to be something of a novelty, these days, nothing says, “I wanted to exert the least amount of energy possible while still maintaining decorum” like a digital message sent at the last possible moment.
Okay, yes, somewhere out there is a mother who would love one, if not all, of these gifts, but by and large, the rest of us would be thrilled if you'd avoid them.



Things she has no interest in
Tickets to a Jonas Brother’s concert? Only if Mom lives for “Lines, Vines, and Trying Times.” Use the same logic for everything from X-Box games to power tools—if you want it more than she does, think of something else.

Cutesy jewelry
While a classic bracelet or earrings are welcome and wonderful, anything that looks like it was designed for the kids (or, well, kids who ride Harley’s in Vegas) can stay in the store.

Hint gifts
Unless Mom has mentioned that she would really love a little help with her weight, her acne or her facial hair, please stay away from anything designed to let her know where she could use a little improvement.

Gender neutralizing sleepwear
Granny jammies, Snuggies, and/or anything designed to make her look more like stuffed toy than a woman are a bad idea. Especially in May.

Cleaning products

Unless the mom in question has specifically said, “Honey, all I want for Mother’s Day is something that will make these floors SPARKLE!” stay away from gifts that help her with the drudgery of housework.

Coupons for favors
Call us old-fashioned, but washing dishes, folding the laundry, and cleaning the yard are family chores that should be shared by everyone, not “gifts” for mom.

Nothing??
Oof. While some moms have Hallmark holiday allergies, most would like a little recognition on the day. It doesn’t take longer than 15 minutes to make a card of your own if you managed to forget—just grab paper and a Sharpie and write down why you love her.

Making the day more about another mother

Having heard horror stories from moms who were expected to cook, clean, and cater to their own mothers or mother-in-laws, we just have to get this one in here. Mother’s Day is a time to honor all moms. And by honor, we do not mean ‘make suffer quietly while she serves cake.'

Things for the kids
Save the diaper bags, craft supplies, and memberships to children’s museums for baby showers and kid’s birthdays--Mom deserves a grown up gift.

ehehe worst or not?but I think the best gift one can give their mom is to ask what they most would like. If you are going to celebrate it, many moms don't want gifts or like in my case my mother has everything she needs or wants, so what's wrong with asking? Also, Some moms love to share the day with their spouse and/or kids and others really want the day to themselves.
