A number of companies — including DoorDash, M.A.C, and Levi’s — have given their customers the option of opting-out from receiving Mother’s Day-related emails and push notifications this year.

DoorDash posted a message that reads, “We understand that Mother’s Day may be a difficult time for some. Click the button below if you’d prefer to be removed from additional emails and push notifications this year.”

M.A.C., a cosmetics company, posted along the same lines, writing, “We understand that Mother’s Day can be a difficult time for some of us. If you’d rather not receive emails about the holiday this year, let us know…”

Levi’s told its customers, “We know motherhood and all the associated feelings, emotions and memories can be tricky — and even triggering for some people. The last thing we want to do is hit you with celebratory “yay mom” energy that doesn’t match up with your vibe. So this year, we’re giving you the option to opt out of our Mother’s Day content by clicking here.”

Others have included Father’s Day email opt-outs in their messages to customers as well, like Fry’s Food Stores, which wrote, “We know Mother’s Day and Father’s Day can be sensitive times for some.”

The messages have received a mixed reception; some see this as another corporate effort to erase womanhood and motherhood:

Some felt the messages were an “overcorrection” due to fear of boycott.

Others felt that the messages were an attempt by the companies to be “considerate” to people who have emotional difficulties surrounding the holiday for various reasons (loss of a mother or child, etc.).

Others felt that even if the intent was to be compassionate, this message is the wrong one to send:

The way society and corporate America treat motherhood is a dichotomy — on one hand, they frequently treat motherhood as less important of a role for women than any other role they might possibly hold in life; on the other, they admit the fact that mothers and motherhood are so important that the mere mention of them might trigger a trauma response from some people (those who have lost their mothers, are estranged from their mothers, or who are mothers themselves that have experienced loss).

One thing we can most certainly say is that motherhood impacts the world, and the importance of such a role should never be diminished.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Although millions of American parents send their precious children off to public school every day, imagining their kids' days will be filled with reading, writing, arithmetic, science, history, sports and music, they're not only in for a shock – but for total BETRAYAL. Today's "public" (government) schools have become far-left ideological, political and religious indoctrination centers aimed at reprogramming and transforming America's children.

Kids are being taught to HATE their own country and to see themselves and their parents as racists – or victims of racists. They are sexualized and corrupted, and many are groomed into the dark LGBT world, with almost 6,000 schools prohibiting parents from even hearing about their child's transgender "transition." In between all the far-left indoctrination and sexual corruption, teachers take time to scare children to death about the near-term end of life on earth due to "catastrophic climate change." Another lie. But it's all classic Marxism/communism, with even the "3 R's" – reading, writing and arithmetic – now being corrupted with "woke," "1984"-style madness.

Perhaps never has the true threat of today's U.S. public school system been exposed as in the sensational April issue of WND's critically acclaimed monthly Whistleblower magazine, titled "THE GREATEST BETRAYAL: How Marxism and madness have taken over America's public school system." Whistleblower is available in both the popular print edition and a state-of-the-art digital version, either single issues or discounted annual subscriptions.
