Fb ask whats on my mind.. well whats on my mind this morning while watching some Proms Pictures...I see the bar is being set higher and higher in terms of expense for kids attending the prom. Well back in my days we had no prom but ya we have now taken on another American tradition. No offense to those parents who can afford to lavish their kids with elaborate Prom preparations. My concern is now on that kid who excelled in school and would really like to have nice stuff but ... their parent(s) won't be able to afford. Imagine a single Parent with three additional kids attending school with school fee's to pay etc spending $1000.00 for one of them to attend the Prom. I remember when my Son was in his last year of High School and he refused to attend the Prom. He said Mommy you are preparing to send me off to study and you doing it on your own I don't want to put you through additional expense. Lucky me he taught that way but how much other blush homecoming dresses 2018 children will think that way. I can imagine the heartbreaks some kids will comes to term with as their parents won't be able to afford a dress up in the hundreds, limo, etc . I remember some years ago some ladies approached me to donate a second hand evening gown to go towards some young ladies who could not afford an expensive dress . I think that is a good Idea and should be continued even sponsoring their hairdresser and makeup etc would even make it better, I'm not sure if that is still done... Just my taughts
