[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is everyone so riled up about this? I lurk on Facebook and rarely post, but at least half of what's in my feed probably annoys someone. People are braggy and insensitive about all sorts of things. Just wait until the college admissions results start pouring in. If you think something is obnoxious, keep scrolling or laugh about it with your SO (probably what I should have done here I suppose).[/quote] I think it is different in this case because the OP said they are in a small community of kids who have all been through the grueling process of applying to high schools in dmv. It these were kids posting their own messages as a high school senior about getting into X university’s wouldn’t think twice, but actually a lot of kids don’t do that who go to elite schools because it is showy. I’m any case, the parent in question was obviously happy and feeling proud but it isn’t something most people in those sorts of communities would do. [/quote]
