[quote=Anonymous]I would be forgiving of this. I can understand why she is excited her kid got into a first choice school. They have been hoping and waiting for months and are so excited and she is understandably proud of her kid. I felt the same way about my 8th grader's acceptance into a private school. I texted family and a few friends but did not post on social media because I figured it wasn't a good idea since other kids might not be going where they want. However, a friend of mine just told me her kid got accepted to an Ivy early decision. I was thrilled for her and was surprised she hadn't said anything over social media because it was such exciting news--a much bigger deal than my kid getting into a private school. But now that I think about it I understand why. You shouldn't be expected to keep this stuff off of social media forever though. Eventually I want to know what my distant friends' kids are up to and where they are going next year.[/quote]
