Comment on The terms "Mother's Day" and "Father's Day" is very anxiety-inducing for people who have been abused/neglected as a child.

It sounds ignorant and insensitive to suggest that companies should not monetize and advertise potential trauma-triggering holidays or at least allow users to disable that monetization/advertising?

Do you read what you and I write? Or do you just want to be outraged at all costs?

I’m not suggesting that, and it didn’t seem to me like OP was either

  Then you didn’t read what was written.

    I did, nothing about people no longer using the terms was said in the OP. Please don’t resort to wild claims of lying like that.

    The OP is literally this:
    
    I hate when websites use the terms “Item arrives before Mother’s/Father’s Day”.
    
    Makes me want to cry, thinking about the alternate timeline where I have a normal life and no depression/anxiety.
    
    What about “I hate when websites use the terms” and “Makes me want to cry” tells you that OP wants websites to advertise with mother’s day/father’s day?
    
    And what about “Websites shouldn’t use the term for marketing/websites should allow you to opt out” tells you that I said people (and not only companies) shouldn’t use these terms?
    
    Again, please read what was written, don’t invent arguments and statements.
