For those who missed last night's episode, Kelly Bates explained the Bates family's views on dancing. In a recent post, we mentioned that Carlin is going to do a daddy-daughter dance with Gil and a first dance with Evan at her wedding. That is a dream she has had for a while.
Some of our readers, who thought the Bates were against dancing, were confused at hearing this. Below is a quote from Kelly that will interest you. If you scroll down and watch the video, you can also see what Kelly has to say about doing a "wild dance."
"Our family, typically in the past, really was not involved in dancing because we just wanted to avoid, for our unmarried children, them dancing in a sensual way. But Carlin has said for quite a while, one thing she is looking forward to at her wedding is a daddy-daughter dance, and ballroom dancing is just a real classy style of innocent, wholesome dancing. We are all for her doing that at her wedding, we just don't know how."

Gil and Carlin are currently taking dance lessons to prepare for the special occasion, which makes Kelly happy because she says that she will "be the great benefactor if [Carlin makes Gil] learn." The mom of 19 looks forward to dancing while doing the dishes with her hubby.
