When I graduated high school (15 years ago last week), the guests were expected to not act like a bunch of idiots with their screaming and carrying on. Most people were respectful...there are always the exceptions.
My daughter has her 1st dance recital coming up in a couple weeks, and I am dreading it. I say this only because we went to last year's (just to see what it was about), and there were people who were screaming out as the kids were dancing. There was a big, obnoxious lady who was screaming out "that's my boo!!!" every few seconds. All the other adults with her were carrying on the same way.(I will let you speculate on their color.) Every parent who had a smidge of self-respect was mortified!!! If she hadn't been about 400 pounds, I would have told her to shut the fuck up!!!
I understand about being excited for your child to graduate, or dance...but have a little respect for yourself, and the people around you!!!!
