Subject: I guess I don't see what this has to do with having friends outside the school??
In reply to: BTDT 's message, "I will say this, most inter-school friendships are on the up and up, but it only takes one bad apple for a teacher to get cautious. We had a pseudo-adult dancer who chose to leave on bad terms (wasn't allowed to be a queen bee) and they trashed and undermined the former teachers to their groupie "friends"." on 08:37:55 08/04/24 Sun

The same person could have transferred and trash talked the school to new friends/classmates they made after leaving. I don't see what difference it would make if they were friends before the switch.

Back in the day...within the Irish Community, there would be friends and family that danced at different schools just because of schedules, class locations, etc. I'm sure no one would have dreamed of disrupting friendships in that scenario. I thought making friends is one of the big reasons to do such activities.

Even at the Olympics you can see that athletes from different countries or training groups are good friends, looking forward to seeing one another at competitions and even cheering each other on during competitions (while still trying to win!). It's called Sportsmanship. This activity is suppose to be FUN. (it CAN be serious, and competitive and STILL FUN!!). How are people losing sight of this so easily??
