[quote=Anonymous]They definitely do not. My daughter also did not have a date to prom but went anyway with a large group of friends, many of which did have dates but it was all casual and no one cared that she did not have one. Especially with the whole stupid promposal thing—I don’t blame guys for not asking anyone out. It has now devolved down to even homecoming — my son has a girlfriend and had to do a whole hocoposal. She’s very low key and I think probably would not have cared but he felt that the social expectations are such that not doing a stupid public invite was a bad boyfriend thing on the level of forgetting her birthday. The social pressures on kids are ridiculous so it doesn’t surprise me at all that lots of kids are opting out entirely from the date/invite thing. This is at a big public school. Not sure if private schools or single sex schools have a different vibe. [/quote]
