[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 586354, member: 1233"] I think you are raising an AMAZING young woman and you should be very proud of her. She is herself, she knows herself, and she knows what she is not ready for. She seems to truly ENJOY being herself and that is a rare and special thing. Around here, as far back as my own prom, having a date was not the big thing. I never did know how people ran for prom or homecoming queen/king or why anyone wanted to. NOT saying it is/was bad, just htat I didn't have enough interest in it to even find out about it all. Or vote one way or six others on the issues, lol. I know several of my friends's parents were VERY upset that their daus did not have dates, but most of them were that way by choice. Maybe 3 or 4 of 30 or so of my graduating class that went with-o dates really wanted them. I didn't even want to go to the dance because at our school, at that time, it was a bunch of kids getting drunk and stoned and trying to pretend they were not while laughing at how stupid the adults were to think they were sober. I went, because the girl taking photos for the school paper was home throwing up. As soon as I got the pictures I needed, I was GONE. SPent the rest of the night sitting in the car outside a hotel. Our principal got all the hotels in town but one to agree to refuse to rent to anyone who lived in town that week, or anyone who was there for the weekend but was under 20. The other hotel had a TON of business that night, and regretted it. WAY too many high school parties, too many parents who bought booze for their kids, and kids being idiots. I got GREAT photos of about 1/4 of our school being hauled out by the cops. Whole thing was totally hilarious to the ten of us who were sitting there with cameras. And the cops couldn't stop us from taking photos. Not that they tried, being as the godfather of one of my friends was the sheriff. You have a great daughter. Let her enjoy herself and have fun. She has PLENTY of years to deal with the whole boyfriend mess. She is a strong, smart young woman who knows herself, has priorities that are in pretty decent order, and she wants to enjoy herself in some fairly healthy ways with-o the hassle of some guy thinking he should know what she is doing and where she is all the time. Even if it WAS strange to go with-o a date, if she has fun, breaks no laws, hurts no one, what is the harm? [/QUOTE]
