Kudos to this Scharf guy, its a great idea and a worthy cause, he's right these kids do deserve a chance to enjoy themselves in a non-judgmental atmosphere.

Here is the thing, I think the obnoxious sums of money spent on them by parents who are competing with other parents... well that really is disgusting, but that does not mean I am against proms, just douchebag parents that think getting their kids the best limos, a weekend in Hawaii afterwards for their kid and their friends to continue the party (often unchaperoned)) and that sort of nonsense, I am against that
