Or do you have a rule, like only for very close friends or if you actually know their children…?

    I barely wish my friends a happy birthday.

    My mom, dad, sister, and wife get a birthday wish, and maybe the 3 people I know who share my birthday.

    My friends get a birthday wish if something reminds me that it’s their birthday.

    Their kids get a birthday wish if it comes up in conversation or I happen to see them.

    Of course I generally don’t even celebrate my own birthday, I was pleasantly surprised to see that I didn’t get the usual birthday card signed by all the coworkers I don’t care about at work.

      To a certain degree I like wishing friends a happy birthday. It’s telling each other that we still care about each other’s life.

      However, signed cards from and for all coworkers? Hell no!
