Special occasions ALWAYS sucked for me, which I guess is one reason I had no problem with no longer "celebrating" them.
But I have "gift day" for my kids every year. Usually it's over the summer and over the years it's kind of deteriorated into just me giving them money and letting them buy whatever they want (within reason lol).
And one "Sister" (not a Nun lol) used to throw a party for the kids every year at the park and gave them presents until she got too old to keep up with the tradition.
Though they hardly compare to a sweet 16 celebration, they were a lot of fun- karioke (sp!!), cake, "yankee swap" and board games and just general, run of the mill sort of fun.
I don't know if 16 year olds are into karioke these days lol. How about a DDR party :D
