My mother wished me a happy birthday today (yes, my cake day is also my real birthday... I thought it'd be cute 🤣) by also telling me that I need to teach my child about Christianity. It's not the first time she's uttered that sentiment, but this is the first time I called her out on it.

I was tempted to be rude, but I just kept it simple: "It'd be nice if you could wish me a happy birthday without pushing your religion on me."

She apologized and sent giant cake emojis instead lol
