[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why not spend your time and money doing a service project with your son (making sandwiches for homeless people, picking up trash along the Potomac) instead of sending him to a program that will only instill feelings of superiority?[/quote]

I'm not OP, and I'm not a Cotillion parent, but is there anything wrong with having as a goal to raise a well-rounded kid (to include not only volunteer activities, but social graces as well?).[/quote]

We are a Cotillion parent and our son benefitted from learning to properly address others, shake hands (oops can’t do that anymore). He also volunteers with a homeless shelter in Penn Quarter. One can do and benefit from both activities.[/quote]

Our kids have manners and treat people well.  Because as parents, we taught them morals and values.  We didn't rely on racists to teach them.[/quote]

That's all fine and well for your situation.  But are you and your children in the Green book?  You need to use those manners in the proper settings with the right people.  [/quote]

Go jump off a cliff[/quote]
