Mushrooms, beers and a bush party were all involved in my HS grad.... Simpler times...... simpler times indeed.

Suffice it to say when the parents dispatch NetJets to bring in out of town guests the discussion of what's "normal" and what's "excessive" is sort of out the window.

If family is spread to the wind a graduation seems like a good excuse for a reunion and if you're expecting folks to come from a distance you owe them a nice party, with a few days of events to justify the trip. Not everyone has a lakeside compound to entertain people at.

So let me get this straight, super loaded GF's parents wine and dine you for three days, AND FLY YOU FUCKING PRIVATE to get there, and you are complaining? I'd be shopping wedding rings man.
I think it is mainly a good excuse to get the entire extended family together without calling it a family reunion so more will actually come show up.Live Free or Die

Celebrating High School Graduation
It’s awesome if she really did....totally not hating....but most likely that is false....especially for women’s sports. That is the new lawnmower parent terminology....My kid is getting a full athletic scholarship to ......”. It’s bullshit...see it/hear it all the time.
We have lots of parents that say their kid is committing, signing “National Letters of Intents” and getting “full rides”......to DIII schools........uh...there is no such thing for DIII.....The lawnmowers demand “signing day” newspaper articles, pictures, acknowledgement from the HS.....etc.....
As a 25+ year HS coach, we congratulate all the student athletes that further their education and athletic careers at the collegiate level....It’s just society today....but just letting you know most people who claim a full ride.....are most likely not telling the truth.
*Sorry for the semi rant....it’s just I have been sitting through our end of the season sports banquets and listening to other coaches (esp. our football coaches) and parents bullshit about this stuff.......they are just delusional. “Full ride this, full ride that”......uh, he’s going to a DIII school.....there are no athletic scholarships.
Carry on....

Just so the collective attitude doesn't cement at, oh, yeah, stupid Texas people celebrating the first HS grad, I see signs on the lawns around here, a very upscale CT. County, "2019 (Wilton, Greenwich, etc.) H.S. Grad.", and think, wow, really, you're celebrating that?

Really don't need a reason to have a party, but we celebrated my daughter's HS graduation at the house last weekend. You miserable fucks wouldn't have been offered a beer.
