Red isn’t a colour for the faint of heart. It’s a bold banner, a statement of pride and personality.
Korben White has plenty of both.
Sixteen now, and graduating from Archbishop Sancroft High School in Harleston, Norfolk, Korben has known he wanted to wear a gown to prom since he was twelve.
And this year, he did.
On prom night, Korben stepped out of the car to be greeted with a round of cheers from his classmates and teachers.
To say Korben is fortunate in his family and friends is a massive understatement.
Korben has been lucky enough to be surrounded by people who encourage him to be himself, to have a mother who believes that “Every child should be given the opportunity to explore who they are, and to find their way with supportive and loving parents.”
If only everyone was so lucky the world would be a happier place.

I am so bland by comparison. Never went to prom and never missed it for a moment.

Proms, or grad dances, as we called them in Montreal, have certainly gotten more elaborate over the years. We didn’t rent limos back in my day.
Korben’s gown beats my grad dress, hands down 🙂

So happy for him 🙂
In another family, another school, this story might have had a much different ending 😦

It’s such a shame that not all parents are this supportive.
