Hey you guys, be a pal and help her out. Isn't there a debutante's ball or something coming up this July?

Had you the benefit of a Cotillion experience, you would know that the debs are all summering in the summer and the balls all occur later in the year.

Hi Mrs. Simpson, please excuse my faux pas.

Had you the benefit of a Cotillion experience dear girl, you would know that an e-mail "apology" is by definition, unacceptable.

No it is not true. You do need to fill out a form but it's pretty basic as long as you ignore the questions about when/where "mother was presented". I think the main criteria for acceptance, at least for boys, is a pulse and $300.

Please tell me that this comment better belongs in the DCUM Farce thread . . . . Otherwise, I think I'm going to gag.

My kid already goes to Mrs Simpson's and wants to go to our public school for high school. And he's a boy so that Catholic girls school threat would be kind of empty, so what do I have to threaten - that he will be forced to go to Sidwell?

best threat: homeschooling

I use the same threat of public school.

I use it to threaten my son. As in, "if you don't do _______, I'm going to send you to [Capital Cotillion]/[Mrs. Simpson's]." Works like a charm.
