This graduation thing I don't get. When my child completed Kindergarten they marched them out in little grad gowns with caps and they got their certificates which meant all the parents had to participate in this little pageant. Cooincidentally, my daughter has been an escort of the kindergarten graduation since she was in 6th grade and will perform her duties until she graduates. (she's just completed 9th grade) Which means I have 3 more dresses I have to buy for her escorting the kinder kids into the first grade. lol
When I went to school. There was only ONE graduation. When you actually graduated High School.
I think the parents are going way the hell over the top on the seventh grade graduation stuff. Sure it would be nice to have a little party but it sounds like the parents want to make every year junoir/senoir prom type stuff. Trust me, this did not happen 20 years ago. Sounds crazy.
Hope you have a wonderful night! Enjoy. You still got a bit to go before the finish line and when you pass that finsih line you have another 4 to 7 years to go depending on your college selection.
Life never gets more simple than right now............enjoy it dear.
As some of you know I'm a small little teen and my Graduation is coming up. So a few parents want to have it at this hotel called the Hilton, but it will cost 50 bucks per person. And really it's a gr7 grad. And apparently there will be a limo, professional photographer, and a professional DJ.
Well the teens who are graduating don't want it there because its over the top for a gr7 grad. Plus those few parents are the ones who want this whole fancy $hit not the teens and its the teens grad so this thing is messed up big time.
It's breaking the friendship between us teens and its breaking the relationships that our parents have with other parents.
Also the school wont give us a graduation in the gym like they used to do because it's gotten really ugly with the whole arguments and the school doesn't want to be involved anymore. This whole grad situation is pissing me off -_-
So I decided to put a little Grad party on myself. The cost is free, the teens party while the parents are in a seprate room, there'll be music request by the graduating class and food. It's nice and simple no cost and no trouble. The best part is that there is no parents allowed because the parents were the ones who split us up in the first place.
The song I requested was Parental Guidence. \,,/
Well I'm just sharing something that is pissing me off like HELL.
