[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are doing it for our boys. It’s not at all some kind of fancy high society event, just kids dressing up and going to a little party at the neighborhood event center. I like the classes because they do teach manners in a fun and engaging way and make it a social thing the kids look forward to. The little dance/cotillion is a fun excuse for the kids to dress up and feel fancy and grown up.

I would compare it more to confirmation classes and confirmation than some elaborate debutante ball. [/quote]

+1. It's weird to think of it as "status conscious." It's not at all like that.

My boys play sports and are very athletic. They play x-box and play outside with their friends. Cotillion is a good addition that rounds them out a bit. They can score at the game AND grab the correct fork and tie their ties. It's not that big of a deal.[/quote]

I think most people get this idea from tv shows that portray wealthy UC people doing it and it’s often confused with debutante balls. My family is umc nationally but very MC in any expensive city. Where we go it is not expensive nor glamorous. [/quote]
