World Reacts After No One Shows Up At 9-Year-Old's Birthday Party

There's nothing worse than being stood up on your own birthday. So when no one showed up to 9-year-old Gerald Hamilton's birthday party, his grandma was devastated.

Amelia Lara took to Facebook to vent her frustration. Lara explained that her grandson had invited all 30 of his classmates to his 9th birthday party and that 12 had actually agreed to attend. "At 3 p.m. he made sure his goodie bags were ready for his friends, he was dressed and ready to party. At 5 p.m. he was still sitting there not wanting to cut his cake because one person might show up," Lara wrote. "This breaks my heart."
