Prom Goes To The Dogs

Check this out.

I’m not so sure about this. It most definitely sounds as though this school’s pre and post prom has become an out-of-control event, but I think it’s pretty clear that the parents have created this monster. Canceling prom, in my opinion, will do nothing to curtail the parents idiotic and excessive catering to their children’s every whim. I think this will only fuel the parent’s belief that they have the right to dole out luxuries to their children hand-over-fist. Mark my words, the next thing we hear about this will be that the parents (who can afford a $20,000 Hampton house rental for the post-prom party) will be footing the bill to have the prom at the local Hilton.

While I don’t agree with what is allegedly going on before and after prom, I am fortunate enough to have good kids who have not engaged in this type of behavior. If they had to lose their prom based on other people’s behavior that isn’t even taking place on the school’s property…I think I would have a problem with this.
