[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is seriously getting creepy to put this stuff up year after year. Why are you so obsessed about where kids you don't know go to college? You talk about "youth mental health" and how the college process has gone off the rails and is harming kids and then can't stop yourselves from obsessing endlessly about the destinations of strangers. [/quote] I care about the kids we *do* know. We don’t keep in touch with all of my kids’ old friends from preschool, ES, MS, various activities, teams, etc. but I’d love to hear where they’re heading. [/quote] + 1, I love seeing where kids land and what they're studying[/quote] 11:32 is spot on. You are creepy. You could have just contacted the parents if you actually know them.[/quote] You guys are nutters. "Hi! We haven't seen each other in 8 years but where is Larlo heading to college?" :lol: [/quote] That was the point. OP doesn't know them.[/quote] Oh, come on! In the era of social media we all follow and stay in touch with people online that we may not have individual contact with on a regular basis. That’s perfectly normal in this day and age.[/quote] That's why these people are lonely. They are so afraid to meet people one on one. They think they still are "connected" to someone. No you are not. If you cared to keep in touch or they cared to, they would have. Go meet them in person to "catch up." Go to church. Volunteer PTA to "catch up" IRL, through email, group chats or DMs. [/quote] Not OP but can confirm I engage in plenty of in person contact, group chats, and volunteering but also take a peek at the college decision pages.[/quote] Why need to know who went where? If curious about the list of colleges to where students from a particular school is attending (your kid's hs), the school has that info that is available. Have your kid contact "friends" at high schools they don't attend to find out where "friend" Jane from preschool is going and your kid can fill you in, if your kid and you care so much. These adults are waaaay too nosy.[/quote] Why does it matter if someone gets the information from an instagram page versus the school’s website? Back in the day, in our town it was published in the local paper. Those of you so bothered by this can’t really give a good reason and it’s weird that you’re so upset. I also have trouble believing you yourselves aren’t taking a glance at the pages too![/quote] They are bored trolls who get off on bullying people online. [/quote]
