While many understand that it is a common courtesy to RSVP to party invitations, you would be surprised about how many people do not provide a response at all.

TikTok user and mother Lacey Keighron (@momofthe5ks) shares how she and her daughter, Lily, were both let down by receiving zero responses to Lily’s birthday invitations.

Lacey, clearly emotional, hopped onto TikTok to advise parents to respond to any birthday invitations that their children might get.

It can be really hard not knowing whether anyone will show up, and at some point, you have to prepare for the worst. She shares how important RSVPs can really be, no matter if the answer is yes, maybe, or no.

Lacey’s daughter had a really rough birthday last year after her grandfather died 3 days prior, and her classmates bullied her.

She brought enough cupcakes for everyone in her class, but by the time she got back to her desk, she could tell that her cupcake had been poked at.

Not wanting to let the bullies win, Lily went ahead and ate the cupcake regardless. Later, the bullies told her that what she thought was a cream filling was actually a piece of cheese.

Lily and her mother were extremely upset, especially after the school paid no mind to the incident when it was brought up.

The amount of bullying at that school is part of what led to Lily being homeschooled for the beginning portion of this year, and she didn’t return back to public school until about halfway through the school year.

Still, she made a few new friends at her new school and wanted to invite them to a pool party for her birthday, which her mom gladly agreed to. However, she didn’t have the parent’s contact information, so she sent Lily to school with invitations to hand out.

As the day of the party got near, Lily’s mom started to worry about the lack of responses. She let her daughter know so that she wouldn’t get her hopes up too high and wouldn’t be super let down on the day of her party. Still, Lily was very upset by this news and was very hurt.

“Our daughter has now been crying for like 2 hours. I have been crying. I’m so sad for her. I don’t really know what to do for her to make it better,” Lacey said.

Lacey really wanted her daughter’s birthday to be a lot better than last year, but now she’s worried that she is going to be disappointed yet again. All Lily wanted was to share her day at the pool with five of her friends.

“If you get the invitations, just RSVP yes or no or even maybe. But something is better than nothing,” Lacey directed at parents watching her video.
