absolutely no need at all for all the bumff of having a promm when a end of year leaving do would do the job just as well and probably not put off less fortunate people from turning up whos parents cant afford limos , fancy gowns and tux's etc
schools enforce school uniforms all the way through school life allegedly so that everyone appears the same and dosnt feel pressured to wear teh latest fashions etc then they undo all that by putting great pressure on pupils and parents to buy and provide everything that goes with been part of a promm
yeah im a miserable sod lol but im a miserable sod with more sense thant to spend £100 on a limo just to take my kid to school and pay a fortune for a outfit it will only wear once
when we left school all our mates signed our shirts with marker pens and we had an end of year disco which consisted of a dj, ciderkin and other soft drinks and a few sneaky snogs in teh corner or behind teh hall room curtains
its about time we abondoned american ways not embrace more of them
