Sorry, but I don't get this. What does Cotillion have to do with parental egos?


NP. But I think the notion is Cotillion is one of those things the "right people" do (like go to a Cathedral School, belong to Chevy, vacation on Nantuckett, etc.).


How wrong are you if you go to Maret, belong to Columbia, and vacation in Rehoboth?


You might as well give it all up and homestead off the grid in Idaho.

Well, my Grams would say isn't that where the French, Catholics, and gays go, respectively. LOL.

May she RIP.

I actually know more than one family at Cotillion who do all of the above.

Actually, I do. I don't need them to rub shoulders with other wealthy kids just to make me feel like we are among the 1%.

Support system? LOL. I teach them good values and to represent themselves and their family. I don't to shell out money to learn how to pour lemonade for the opposite sex.

You don't have tween/ middle school age kids, do you? When you do, you will recognize the value in having a support system like this in place, to reinforce what you want to teach them at home.

How is learning to dance and have some idea on how to handle yourself in a social situation placating an ego. From looking at the behavior if the kids at my DS school, more parents need to placate their egos.

No, they invite kids from other private schools and from the NWDC/Bethesda/Chevy Chase elementary schools. They also have a website - if you're interested you just put your family on their mailing list.
