More than half of us will send a Facebook message instead of a gift or card this mother’s day
A recent survey has revealed that more than half of us will simply be sending a quick Facebook message or text rather than a special gift or a card this Mother’s Day.
The survey, which questioned more than 2,000 people under the age of 25 across the UK casts a sorry outlook on today’s younger generation as they skip taking part in the age-old tradition of celebrating mothers.
The survey also revealed nearly 20% will plan on pretending to have sent a Mother’s Day card using the old “lost in the post excuse.”
Matthew Lobas of online retailer SWAGG who headed the survery in February, said “The statistics summed up the little appreciation the younger generation have for adults in general and lifestyle changes in Britain.”
He said “We’re all more strapped for cash than ever with the recession but with a card costing as little as 29p or a small gift for under a fiver it paints a sorry picture to say the least.”
