Kindergartner parties alone after no one shows up to birthday bash

Even free pizza couldn’t attract any pint-size partygoers for a 6-year-old’s birthday.

An Arizona mom says none of her son’s kindergarten friends showed up to his birthday party — after she sent 32 invitations to his classmates.

The boy, Teddy, held a birthday bash on Sunday at Peter Piper Pizza in Tucson, where he and his mother, Sil Mazzini, had been expecting dozens of little girls and boys — as well as the children’s parents — to join them at the restaurant. Mazzini said a few people told her in advance that they couldn’t make it, but she wasn’t prepared for everyone to be no-shows.

“I’m done with parties for a while,” Mazzini told KNXV.

So sad, in this day and age birthday parties that include “school classmates” should be finished, invite family only.

It didn't just happen there was some reason behind the snub.

And my guess,838 is your one of the stuck up, "I'm better than you in every way" kind of person. Some people just aren't comfortable with stuff like that nowadays. Can't blame them when people are shooting people and stuff like that. I wouldn't take them either. I would get a gift and card for the child and let the parents know we would not be there.

I'm calling BS. either mom is playing this up for attention and freebies which they're now getting or there was a problem with the invites.
