I know some might thing this is stupid, and reply "hell no", but should I get my parents an anniversary present if they're separated? They're not divorced, and I didn't think about it until now. I asked my mother if we have any special occasions in August, and she replied "my anniversary". She still thinks it's a special occasion even if her marriage sucks and my dad doesn't live with us. I asked her if I should still get her a present and she blushed and didn't answer. I have a feeling my parents would really appreciate it, but it's kinda weird. Really weird. I'm really confused here. Please help!!!

I think you should get your parents a anniversary
present even though their separated them being separated shouldn't matter either way you look at
it it's still their anniversary that won't change if you have a feeling your parents would really appreciate a present then do what you feel is right if your mom didn't think it was a special occasion then that'd be a different story but that isn't the case it's worth it to get them a present remember it's the thought that counts :)

Good luck!
