Furious boy, 7, writes letter calling coronavirus ‘the f word’ after his birthday party is cancelled

The letter says: “To coronavirus you destroyed my birthday you are the f word.” 

Liz, a musician, said: "I came close to tears when I told Luka we would have to cancel the party.

"I just explained to him that it wouldn't be very responsible for the party to go ahead and he was so good.

"He just asked important questions like if he'd still get presents then he said he wanted to write a letter.

"He asked for permission to call it 'the f word' - I saved it for Tessa when she got home from work and she thought it was hilarious.

"I really don't know where he thought it was going, because he addressed it to coronavirus."

Despite the pair having to cancel the planned party, they still made Luka’s big day, on March 16, special.

The family, including little sister Joni, two, dressed up as Harry Potter and had a scavenger hunt. 

Liz said: "We'd planned to postpone the party but we ended up going all out anyway.

"It was actually better because we could just focus on Luka, which you don't always get to do as parents.

"It was just the four of us and he definitely enjoyed himself.

"He's absolutely obsessed with Harry Potter. He knows all the words and all the trivia, it's unbelievable."

The parents added they were taken aback by how popular the post was, with people from all over the world wishing Luka a happy birthday and sending him video messages. 

Liz added: “It's so weird how viral it went.

"He got so many people wishing him happy birthday and sending video messages.

"That doesn't happen often so it turns out that actually coronavirus didn't ruin his birthday, it made it more special."

Meanwhile these guilty mums are sharing throwback snaps from Christmas when they decorated their tress with loo roll.

And this mum was in shock after buying 18 loo rolls only for her kids to put them all in the bath.

Plus mums are using the pepper and glitter method to teach kids how to properly wash their hands.
