Why does my mom want me to go to the dance so badly?
Well, I'm an eight grader. And every year there's a dance called the "Eighth Grade Dance". I've went for my sixth and seventh years but this year I just didn't want to go through all the stress of finding a dress and such. So I decided I didn't want to go and that there would be other better, funnier dances in high school. But there's a good chance I will get nominated for Queen.. but that won't really change my mind about going. And my mother who hates to shop said that I HAVE to go and that she would take me shopping for a dress this weekend. But I told her again how I didn't like getting stressed about finding a cute dress, and that it wouldn't even be that fun because dances at my school are usually like stand around and talk. She finally agree and said "Okay, it's your choice but I think you should go." And now I just feel guilty and bad. And it feels like I should go just to make her happy.
I just don't understand why she would go shopping with me when she hates shopping and spend a lot of money on a dress and shoes and everything. And when we shop together we both usually get really frustrated. And I'm just trying to spare that all. So why would she want me to go so badly?

She doesn't want you to miss out on the experience. I understand that dances can be boring, and they usually aren't much fun, but with an attitude like that, they won't be. Telling yourself that a dance will be just as boring as it was last year will only make you believe it and it will lessen your chances of actually having fun.
Your mom wants you to go because she doesn't want you to miss out and regret it. I know to you it's just a dance, but to your mom it's an experience. You only get to experience 8th grade once, so you might as well take advantage of it before it's over. It's going to be the same thing with prom, and whatever else once you get into high school.
Just go to the dance. It'll make your mom happy, and maybe you'll even have fun. :) If it makes you less stressed, ask your mom if a friend can come shopping with you. I'm sure she won't mind. Have fun.

As a mother, she probably just wants you to go and have a good time. All your friends are probably going and she just wants you to go to this one, as well. If it's concerning you, just ask her. She's probably not hiding anything from you. She'd rather you be out and having fun than at home watching tv or doing homework. Hope that helps :)

I think your mother wants you to go maybe because she didn't go to a dance when she was in school or
because she thinks it would be a good experience for
you even though you've already gone to dances in the past i think you should confront your mother and ask her why she wants you to go she'd probably
give you the answer your looking for(:
