Alex Nash, a 5-year old child in England, missed a classmate’s birthday party to attend a family event. Alex’s parents said they would have contacted the parents throwing the birthday party, but school was on break and they didn’t have a way to tell anyone that Alex wouldn’t make the party.
Once school resumed, Alex came home with an invoice for $25 with the line item reading, “Child’s Party No-Show Fee.”
The parents who held the party are now threatening to take Alex and his parents to small claims court if they don’t pay up.
