Meanest mom-EVER
Okay. So I'm the meanest mom ever once again, and I'm sure it won't be the last time I hold that title. My 8 year old's school is having a school dance this afternoon. I am not allowing him to go to this dance, which is for grades K-8. Am I the only one who can't see why Kindergarten students need to be mingling at a dance with a bunch of hormone driven 8th graders? He just innocently wants to go and spin around on the gym floor on his back so his 8 year old buds will laugh, but I think we can do that in another setting. Just sayin'.

Hmmmmmm.... that's a tough call! The girls had a sock-hop at their school, and I went to take pictures. This was during the day and in connection with an MDA Hop-a-Thon. The PE teacher was in charge of the music, and everyone, K-6 danced to The Chicken Dance, Hokey-Pokey, Bunny Hop, YMCA, and a few more I cannot remember. Done right, I think the gym can be shared with the wide range of ages, but adding 7th and 8th graders to the mix might be pushing everyone's luck.
ReplyDeleteI would be more likely to let him go if it were for a good cause....with the lesser grades attending too. This is just a monthly thing his school does to raise money for the band. And of course, you know "everybody else is going."
