Prom Problem
This is year is my junior year of high school, and my first prom ever. It is a tradition at my all girl school to not bring a date but to bring all your friends. One of my friends suggested to bring all of my friends plus one other girl. The only problem is, I am not allowed to hang out with this girl and I don't want to. She's a bad person and had caused a lot of trouble in our friend group.I really love my friend, but I don't understand why she wants to include her in this. I'm not trying to be mean, and my mom would flip if she knew she was included. I want to go with all my other friends, except that girl. What do I do?

All I can think of is, yes, a prom is a public event but usually exclusive to those who attend that school and the guests they invite. If the troublesome girl attends this school, then she has a right to show up. If she doesnt attend and needs to be invited to have a reason to attend, then don't invite her. You fear what the other girls would have to say if you didn't invite her. Talk to them and let them know your Mother doesnt wish for you to purposely associate with her anylonger and you don't want to lose any privileges by going against her. So this means you will be inviting them but not inviting her.

Prom is a public event. It is not a party that you and your mom are hosting in your barnyard. This means you do not get to decide who attends and neither does your mom. I understand that you do not like this other girl. I suggest that you avoid her. But, you cannot tell your friends to avoid her. You can not tell other people who they should and should not talk to; if they want to spend time with her that is their right.
If you ask moi, it sounds like you are the one trying to cause trouble in your friend group, missy!
