I am looking for Mother's Day cards for mothers who have lost children due to still birth or infant death and I can't find a damn thing.  Anyone have any ideas?

There are special groups (perhaps like the one your in) that have contacts for all kinds of services, from cards > funerals > family photos ect ect. good luck with the search, the family's need to greave the loss!

I think a "Thinking of You" card would be fine. It is important to them that people don't forget about the child.

I'm not sure but the waitresses flirt and then when they hand over the bill I give it to the wife, you should see the look on their faces when they realize who is going to leave the tip

They are there to take your mind off the 50$ pitchers.

Yes. However, the food is terrible and the drinks are expensive... Instead try to find a decent strip club. Usually the drinks are cheaper and the food is better... No body minds if you stare there.

Staring and gawking are fine, but gazing? What the hell is wrong with you man?

Ah, a good time to share my Hooters story (Oh and yes, you can stare, but not in a creepy way)... Tuesday I met a friend at Hooters and I had my daughter with me (yeah, yeah, father of the year and all that). But the 17-month old is gold in that place. All the waitresses fawned all over her. One waitress knelt down and spread her arms, asking my daughter for a hug. Natasha ran over, gave her a big hug, and on the break grabbed a handful of boob. I had to look away I was laughing so damn hard.

As a former manager of several Hooters, staring is OK, but it can and will eventually make you look creepy if you do not know when to stop.

My wife says there is a "thinking of you" line via Hallmark.

Shred, no..not joking. :) Fly....most mothers I know want to talk about it and don't want it to be ignored. Of course it is different for every mother.....but the ones that belong to the Mothers and Families support group I belong to want to talk about it...it helps the healing process.

Shit now i feel like a turd!The times i have been confronted with that situation became very awkward and hard to deal with.Yes maybe we should talk about it instead of trying to ignore it.I do feel mothers day is for a woman who is raising a child not who just carried one though. I still like panties much better than this!

Not to make an issue of it or anything Shred...but are you saying that when a woman has carried a baby for 8 or nine months...has anticipated the birth of that child, loves that child, has hopes and deams and expectations for that chid......and then that child passes away unexpectedly......that they are not mothers? They are mothers, they all feel like mothers, and they love those children whether or not they ever had the pleasure of raising them. You shouldn't dismiss a life so simply.....despite what you may he been told, to most women, that thing growing inside them isn't a fetus, it is a child, their child, and he or she is part of their soul.
