Today, I hosted my 6-year-old daughter's birthday party. After inviting 15 kids from her class, making a huge 2-flavor character cake, and cutting pool noodles for light sabers, only 1 kid showed up. FML

hey guys OP again so like I said in my first comment I really wasn't social during that time. when my husband deploys I don't stay in the town we are stationed, there's no point in me staying alone with no one and two kids if I can move closer to family and at the very least have someone around for emergencies. so that's probably a big reason no one came. but bright side of life she still had fun, she had a second party with family and on her actual birthday her and I went out caught a movie and other stuff so she's not scared by any means. Either way i really appreciate all of the support and kind words, yall rock!

Be a parent then, if she's lonely you go out there and party with her yourself or better yet invite some family, have a fake Star Wars fight with her and if you can't finish that cake save it and let her bring a little of it to school for a lunch treat, because if you think you feel shitty for preparing that imagine how she feels that practically no one showed up. Perhaps a little time together celebrating could cheer both of you up

It's not your fault that nobody likes your daughter. but you still can make it a fun day for her to overshadow the fact that, apart from one kid, nobody else bothered to show up. Bring her out to do something you know she likes, ice cream and maybe an extra present or two!

That's a really horrible comment to say nobody likes your child, it's worse than saying nobody likes you to the parent.

hey guys I'm the OP. so background my daughter was turning 6. this was actually last June, but she brought it up saying she hopes all of her friends will come to her dragon Ball Z party this year. but I sent out real paper invites through her teacher for the party that was to take place the weekend after school ended. I know that people were busy with first weekend of summer stuff but it still broke my heart. luckily she didn't really notice at the time of the party and the next day we had a family party with the cousins. she's such a sweet girl and every day I pick her up from school at least 5 kids get hugs from her before we can go so lack of friends I'm sure wasn't the issue, I think it could have been partly my fault due to me not being social with the other parents. I'm not very social wile my husbands deployed I prefer to focus on other things. but thank you all for the support. this year will be better, the husband is back and we're living in a different state where we know more people. so here's to a happy 7th for my little jedi/ Z fighter.

Bad enough all the work you put out. But your daughter had to be crushed. Take her out for a special "together day" and make it super memorable. My granddaughter and wife go to a paint with a twist studio and they always have a blast, plus you have a permanent, special souvenir.

I think this sucks more for her than you, yeah you put a lot of work into it, but imagine how she feels that none of her friends showed up.

The parents that didn't show up are very inconsiderate. To all of you that don't have kids yet, please don't be the parent that pulls this kind of stuff. You are hurting another family and being a terrible example to your own children.
