[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The kids are asking each other as dates to the 5th grade dance? Aren't dances at that age supposed to be about everyone just being there together? I would be more concerned about this than who is cool--this seems way too early to start worrying about who has a date and who doesn't--they shouldn't be "dating" at that age.[/quote] FWIW, I was most definitely NOT a "cool" kid, but even I remember passing "will you be my boyfriend/girlfriend" notes in 4th-5th grade. Totally meaningless, we didn't go anywhere! But this was a 1980s public school.[/quote] Same--there were definitely people who had boyfriends starting in 5th grade when I was a kid back in the 80s. It was totally innocent! My daughter has crushes all the time (sometimes reciprocated) but she still covers her eyes if there is a kissing scene in a movie she is watching because it's gross and embarrassing.[/quote]
