A mum is devastated after she invited 27 children to her daughter’s birthday party, and not one person showed up.
Breanna Strong posted a TikTok video that sent shockwaves through social media as she shared footage of Avery's 3rd birthday shindig.
The on-screen text reads: “We invited 27 kids to Avery’s 3rd birthday party. Not a single one of her friends showed up.”

As the mother dumps a large pizza box into the rubbish, the screen reads: “Money and time wasted.”
Avery is then seen seated alone while eating a slice surrounded by party decorations at the indoor playground KidsTopia.
I mean, if you’re not already crying at this point, you have no soul.

The on-screen caption adds: “Breaks my momma heart so bad. Literally going home to snuggle my babies.”
God, the next school drop-off is going to be awkward, to say the least.
Unsurprisingly, many were left shattered by the grim post, as one person wrote: “This is a rule at my house. If we are invited, we’re GOING! We have been the only one that shows up. So sad this happens I’m so sorry.”
Another commented: “This happened to me on my 16th bday. Never had tried again until I was like 26 and it happened again. I’m 39, now I always treat myself to a spa day.”

A third person said: “This happened to one of my daughters Now I make sure we show up to everyone’s party we are invited to. I never want to see that pain for any child.”
While another shared: “I'm so sorry!!! she must have been heartbroken! next time let us know we will show up and out for her!”
However, the mum responded: “She got everything she wanted. Pizza, frozen cake and jungle gym. She didn’t know any different rather than having fun. Just shattered my heart.”

Similarly, last year, a TikTok user by the name @dawners86 revealed that no one had shown up to her son’s party after she had set up decorations and food at a park for their 22 guests.
While panning across the table, the mum, whose bio says she's a personal trainer and early childhood educator, told users: "So we're sitting at the park for JJ's birthday party, we got everything ready, his party started half an hour ago.
"He had literally zero people show up for his birthday.

"My poor little man."
It's understandable when one or two people don't end up coming to a birthday party, but when loads don't show, that's just heartbreaking.
