[quote=Anonymous]Our children all did it. It was tough to get them to go in the early years. In middle school, as long as their friends were going, they wanted to participate. IMO it was a way to get them to socialize without using an electronic device. Well worth the time and money for that reason alone. I supported many of the other aspects also- table manners, introducing yourself and making small talk, writing a good thank you note, etc. There were dances throughout and again, they offered an easy way for kids to gather and have fun in a way that they would not otherwise had the opportunity for. And DC play sports also, as did most of the other children I knew in the group. Cotillion offered an opportunity for my children to learn some soft skills. Certainly the skills can be taught at home but Cotillion offers an opportunity to practice and put them to use. And get over the ‘woke’ or ‘R’ thing. Just let your kids interact with peers.[/quote]
