Face to Face and Leaves Some Space for Rhetorical Questions
School dance steps look like foreplay
FROM THE HART | Texas town bumps, grinds over the issue for their teens
By Betsy Hart

The author of the article shares that recently in Texas controversy occurred about whether or not teens should be allowed to dance provocatively at high school dances. The author went on to say that she will chaperon all her children's dances and not allow them to dance provocatively. She also believes that common sense would indicate to parents that allowing your child to grind at dances may be a cause when they get sexually assaulted in the parking lot after the dance. The author's main point is parents should know whats going on at their child's dances and everywhere else they go and should be ready to protect their child from them self and others. The author's main point is mostly correct. Parents should know a lot of what there kid does and have an idea of what they are doing, but they do not need to know everything, especially if there child is with people the parents trust. Parents should also always be ready to protect their child from any thing that could harm there child.
The rhetorical question "If the "$400 dress girl" had been sexually assaulted in the parking lot after the festivities because the dance wasn't a "dud," would her mom be happy, or suing the school?" strengthens the authors point because it shows the mom doesn't really care that here daughter didn't have fun but more that she wants to cause trouble for the school system.The rhetorical question supports the author's main point because it shows that the parents don't keep track of their kids and they don't know the dangers of letting their kids dance provocatively. The rhetorical question shows that the parents are irresponsible do not know the danger the kid could be in after the school dance. The question shows that the girls parents do not want to take responsibility for their daughter, but rather blame it on others when something, like their daughter getting sexually assaulted, goes wrong.
