I did not have this problem. In fact I experienced the opposite. My sister got shafted because everyone who we didnt see for anything other than Christmas would bring me presents for my birthday and Xmas and her birthday would be forgotten.

I know a family that celebrates halfbirthday of their kid for this reason (on June 25).

Yeah, I've experienced that as well. A summer party is often nicer than a winter party too.

Depending on the country you might get some collision with midsummer celebrations though
