[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I am not focused literally on football, I was just using that as an example of the culture of my childhood being very into traditional teenage and school activities. School spirit, ALL sports (like, is lax big here in the same way where people get excited to go cheer for their team?), cheerleading, dance, marching band, whatever....going to the movies/mall with your friends (whatever the present version of this is), having parties, sleepovers, going to prom, even getting into a little (innocent) trouble, dating, etc. Like, lighten up and help me understand the culture of the lives of tweens and teens here. That's all I'm asking. For what it's worth, my big high school was EXTREMELY cut throat and competitive in ALL ways, including academics. I'm not worried about that as much as I'm worried about a culture of sheltered, boring, insecure, awkward kids who don't like to have fun at a time that should be so much fun. [/quote] Yeah, I don't think DC is for you.[/quote]
