I dunno. I feel like not celebrating birthdays is pretty low on the list of
**** JWs do that others should care about. Maybe I'm too socially liberal, but I think if a family chooses not to celebrate birthdays that's their prerogative. This isn't something that's exclusive to JWs either. Even their bizarre views on blood transfusions. If an adult chooses to decline life-saving medical treatment, that's up to them. What gets to be a problem for me is when they refuse life-saving medical treatment for their children.
