Nope. Not when they are under 12.
No.
I would slide it to another day if you can. Birthdays are so important to kids! My daughter is turning 4 on 3/2 and already has the restaurant picked out where she wants to go to dinner. Her party with friends is on the weekend, but her birthday is for time with just us and her brother. In between I have a 3-day work trip for a trade show. It’s hard - but try to move those mountains if you can, mama!
It is hard to avoid with 3+ kids. it’s actually easier when they are 2 or less.
Pro
3 days a year to block your calendar. Not hard.
No.
Depends on the culture of your family. I wouldn’t but I grew up in a family where birthdays were a big deal and I love making a big production out of being excited on my kid’s birthday.
Pro
I wouldn’t feel good about it, but I would depending on the trip. We acknowledge mid week birthdays, but always to a special day on the weekend anyway
No.
Nope. Canceled a big client meeting trip bc it overlapped with my daughter’s birthday two months ago. People understand.
I have always taken off on my son's birthday so no travel could get scheduled
