Q A

I just think they should let the kids dance how they want to, but, if it gets too inappropriate, then they should step in and stop them.

I feel the same way as administrators do. I think to an extent dirty dancing is OK, but I think a lot of kids at schools kind of take it to the next level and it doesn't look that good and it's kind of offensive sometimes.

I think in some respects they should meet halfway on the issue. They should allow dancing in certain kinds of ways, but they shouldn't have a no-tolerance policy towards all kinds of dancing that isn't from the 1950s.

I think they should be able to dance however they want, in my opinion.

I don't really like dancing like that, but I guess, if that's the only thing you can do, that's the only thing you can do.
