I make a point call my parents on MY (46F) birthday. I know they want to talk to me on my actual birthday, but if put it on them, they may forget and then be mildly upset. I have made it my tradition, and informed my three children of this expectation. They all (18F, 17M, 13M) have a phone alarm to at least message me on "their day".
