Okay I just wana say THANK YOU! Although a lot of people may not agree with this I personally do.. I went to prom and I had the time of my life.. And I do feel thta it's a special night that I personally wouldn't want to waste.. But I think that people our age will sometimes use this night to prove something (I'm cool/old...) thinking that they'll get the attention/respect of others... however there are others who have better intentions than that.. And I think that self control certainly deserves a lot of repsect as well.
Again, thank you! It just doesn't make sense to me. If you wana drink fine but don't make a fool of yourself. Don't make people lose their respect for you. It's not fun.
I personally find school dances quite fun. It's probably different over here. We all know eachother at me school and we're generally comfortable around one another so we usually just have fun with it..
