[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That sounds like bad management. I think other cotillions are very careful to have the same number of boys and girls.[/quote]

I think the problem is not having an equal number, which all try for, but that on some nights, a few less boys (or girls) will show up.  [/quote]

Not showing up?  Sounds like they need more than the Cotillion to improve their manners . . .[/quote]

My son has missed dances due to other commitments - birthday parties, camping trips, etc.  I don't think that makes him ill mannered.[/quote]

The Capitol Cotillion schedule, as you know, is determined and announced at the beginning of the season.  By accepting the invitation to join the Cotillion, you (and your DC) are making a commitment to the Cotillion organizers, and by extension, the Cotillion participants.  Unless these "birthday parties, camping trips, etc." were previously scheduled (unlikely), then barring an emergency or sickness, not showing up at the Cotillion for the once a month event is, well yes, ill mannered, at least for you.  DC is excused for this lapse, but it is certainly not a good example to be setting.[/quote]
