[quote=Anonymous]Wanted to gain other parents thoughts on this. Have a few friends that have kept us in the loop of their kids lives over the years on social media. Every accomplishment, milestone, picture from childhood and on -- you name it -- was shared with friends (including me) on social media. Their DC just graduated from high school and a few of us on their social media site have asked where DC is going to college. They refuse to release the name of the college.

My thought is that they have every right to not share if they don't want to. But I find it a little disingenuous that they would share so much of their personal lives with us on social media, see that we share our DC's details as well, and then pull back on releasing the college decision. So many of us put ours out there.

Is this normal? I would think that they have shared so much until now, but now we're supposed to not ask?

They seem incredibly proud of their DC, but I have to wonder why the secrecy. What are they signaling? [/quote]
