Itemize Birthday Parties on your resume

If the woman who wrote the book Poised for Success really believed what she was saying.  The child should have been instructed to take the invitation with the understanding that he would formally accept the invitation after having his lawyer read it, and by accepting the invitation he would be entitled to one vote on the birthday party planning committee for the following year.  He should have asked to see the profit and loss statement to strategize a present campaign to increase the chances of receiving desirable gifts.  The child should be instructed to take advantage of photo ops, to include in a portfolio to get into a good college.

5-Year-Old Receives Invoice After Missing Friend's Party

Instead, Whitmore suggested "a courtesy call saying, 'I’m sorry that your child could not attend my child’s party. I had to incur the cost of him not showing up. Therefore, I would appreciate it if you could help me out by helping me either fully or in part take care of the bill for him not showing up.'”
Whitmore went on to add that Alex's parents weren't off the hook either. The couple claimed they couldn't find the original invitation when they realized their son was double-booked and therefore couldn't connect with Lawrence.
But Whitmore, who is also the author of Poised for Success, believes Alex's father or mother could have made more of an attempt to get in touch.
