Re:NEW, FUN, EXCITING, IN SIMSBURY? - 2008/02/26 18:11
Now, now, WE weren't talking or rather I was not talking about MY kid being perfect..I said "MY kid" would never dirty dance at the school....and HE wouldn't ...
AND...I was mentioning this to a Simsbury Mom today who's daughter graduated 05', and this woman remembers her daughter going to "ONE" school dance where the kids were dancing like that, and she never went back to another dance there again! She hated it, she was there to actually dance....Not get groped, etc.
And I'm not saying my kid is perfect, no one's are..although he is a really good kid....I am not blind.....I have been there raising him, directing, admonishing, and making sure he is taking responsibility when needed to correct his actions.
BTW....Who does chaperon the school dances? Rumor has it that it is the teacher's....so how did the dancing at the school get way off track to where it is now?
I still like the idea of parents doing the chaperoning and being allowed to see the kids dancing like that...
Really, I know and am aware even for my own self in the world we live in with all the hyper this and that that it is difficult...that sometimes we ...do what we do...BUT, it doesn't have to be done in the schools...If my kid boycotted the dance because he wasn't allowed to do "dirty dancing", well I would take a good look at the son I was trying to raise and think again.......GG
