[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's not like I ever bring it up but if they ask I answer and always ask where their DC is going in return as it seems to be the polite thing to do but what's with the attitude once they learn about were our child is going?[/quote]

OP says here that they are the ones asking.  If they feel bad about not getting in somewhere then they shouldn't ask OP.  Simple.[/quote]

80% of the hate-on-OP posters so far have missed this important fact.

Please. Nobody should ever ask another family where little Suzy is going next year?

People are entitled to ask. And they are entitled to deal with the answer as they see fit. The school process and the college process are similar in that both cause disappointment and maybe jealousy, and may even end friendships. It's perfectly normal, it's also unavoidable.

OP deserves censure for pretending she doesn't understand this totally predictable, totally natural fallout. Now whether OP is doing a humble brag or she's just dense, I couldn't say.[/quote]
