Today, in the United States, coming-of-age celebrations are big business. Television networks such as MTV and TLC have created My Super Sweet Sixteen, Quiero Mis Quince and Outrageous Kid Parties, three highly rated reality programs chronicle the expense and drama involved in giving teen and preteen parties. With approximately 400,000 Hispanic girls celebrating their fifteenth birthday each year, Hispanic families spend an average of $15,000 to $20,000 for each of these celebrations. Quinceañeras and Sweet 16 celebrations are a $680 billion dollar industry. The Rand Youth Poll found 13- to 19-year-old females spend approximately $64 billion a year, $31 billion of this on beauty and fashion. Over $2.75 billion a year is spent on a wide variety of prom related "necessities" including dresses, tuxedos, accessories, flowers, beauty products and transportation. It is estimated that the average 17-year-old girl spends over $700 on a prom and couples can spend up to $1200 for this one time celebration.
