[quote=Anonymous]It’s social media *shrug*.   But, by MS, your kid has a right to some privacy, even if the grades are great.

The only person I know who does this is the mom of 2 SPED kids— with intellectual difficulties so severe they are not doing a standard diploma and will go to the Davis Center in FCPS after HS to try to get the work skills needed for a minimum wage job.  The mom posts the straight A report cards with the “Practical Math” and “Skills for Independent Living” classes. And it makes me grateful that my kids (who are far from perfect) don’t have these types of lifelong challenges.

I’m happy that she has these brag opportunities for her kids. She’ll never get to do the “my kid driving independently for the first time” or the where my kid is going to college” or “excited my kid is setting off for a semester abroad” posts. She’s extremely gracious about my kids achievements.  But I know it must be hard to watch your kids peers become independent and start adult lives when your kids may never meet many of these adult milestones.
