[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look, it's your right to say no whenever you want.  That's pretty much a given.

However, I get your friends' point that children it DOES take courage to ask someone to dance and kids should recognize that too. [/quote]

THIS, x100.

I, too, agree that everyone has the "right" to say no, at any time, to anything.  However, I think at least during middle school, it would be a kindness to simply say yes to an invitation to dance.  Those of you trying to equate it to saying yes to sex are being ridiculous.  It's just common courtesy to accept an offer to dance, regardless of who's doing the asking.  And it does take a tremendous amount of courage at the age of 12 or 13 to ask someone to dance.  Accepting doesn't mean anything, other than you're agreeing to a 3 min. dance, as another PP said.

And for those of you who disagree, I encourage you to prepare your own child for rejection and not to whine when he or she comes home mortified that his or her invitation was declined - in front of all of their friends.   :roll: [/quote]
