Almost 2000 years ago, the Romans having held graduations for Pre-D and Donec, began the celebration of "Gradus Uterum" on August 24, 70AD. And immediately, Mount Vesuvius puked its guts out.

My 5yo daughter graduates from Kindergarten next Thursday and I'm quite happy and proud of her. There was a "graduation" back in the 70's when I was little. It's nothing new. "Attack life, it's going to kill you anyway." Steve McQueen... | |||

I had one in late 80s. Don't think we wore cap and gowns though. Just got a "diploma" and picture taken. My oldest was in public school when he finished Kindergarten, but I honestly don't remember if they did anything for it. My kids now go to a private school and my two younger kids had the cap and gown pictures taken. ------------------------------ I'm a right wing, anti-illegal, pro-life, gun owning, straight, white, college educated, politically informed, conservative, Christian male.

My ex-wife owns a few daycare centers. She does a preschool graduation every year. It just a cute little thing with cap and t-shirt. It's a way for the kids to say bye to each other as they go to kindergarten. As others said, it's a photo op and social event. These go to eleven. | |||

Touchy feely nonsense to me. Also, they don't even have high school graduation in England. You only get that when leaving university. Graduation ceremony for kindie-gartners, what a waste of time! Retired Texas Lawman, now active reserve | |||

We had graduation ceremonies for pre-school, kindergarten, 8th grade, and of course, high school. I made a deal with my mother that if I didn't quit my job, I didn't have to go to the high school one. I just wanted out of there. What made high school worse for me than it would have been, was that my sister was a "star", in the Nat Honor Society, took advanced classes, etc, and LOVED school. The only time I showed that I could equal her grades etc, was on the "Iowa Tests", where I would tie her or a couple of times, beat her scores. This infuriated her no end, "He doesn't even care about school!". I would probably kill myself if I was in school now, I thought the admins were insane back 40-50 years ago, and they seem even crazier now. | |||

I dunno man, I know a girl who was left back in kindergarten. I knew her again later in life, she was a normal smart girl, so it's not like she has special needs or something. Maybe she just couldn't master the finger paints.  _____________________________________________________ Sliced bread, the greatest thing since the 1911. | |||

I don't think anywhere else in the world does. France sure doesn't. I don't think they even have it for University. And the Cap and Gown thing seems to be uniquely American. ~Alan Acta Non Verba NRA Life Member (Patron) God, Family, Guns, Country Men will fight and die to protect women... because women protect everything else. ~Andrew Klavan "Once there was only dark.

This, for mostly the same reasons. I wanted out so bad I could taste it. Started skipping as much and often as I could senior year. Still had to go to the damn graduation ceremony for my mother (valedictorian of her class). 4 more years in college too. Either way, not shocked they have ceremonies in the "everybody is a special little snow flake" world we live in. A Perpetual Disappointment... | |||

Mrs. Ridgeway, the R.Lee Ermey of my Kindergarten in 1962, did not play that shit. Nope. She would however, if needed, jerk a knot in your tail. | |||
