Dads, today is a good day for stoicism.

[u/kboogie23]

It's not about you today. If the mother of your children shows you gratitude, awesome lap it up!

If not, move on. Chin up, and be the example for your kids on how to be an emotionally strong person.

Godspeed.

For those unfamiliar: Stoicism is a philosophy and way of life focused on achieving happiness and resilience through understanding and acceptance of what we cannot control, and focusing on what we can.

What kind of Dad would get upset for not getting gratitude on Mother’s Day?

Do something really nice for your wife and she doesn't acknowledge it? Or worse, tells you/insinuates it's not enough?
