[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Of course! [b]I've been looking forward to making this post for years.[/b]  (Agree with others - no mention of scholarship, no "turned down 15 other schools," etc. Just a cute picture of your kid wearing the sweatshirt.)[/quote]

Pathetic.

You don't have kids, do you PP?  You're one of those sad 50+ age single women who troll this site when you should be working on a memo to Brenda in accounting, wishing you could do it all over again.[/quote]

None of that is true, but even if it were -- it's no more pathetic than "looking forward for years to making a college acceptance post."  I mean, wow.[/quote]

Actually, it's much more pathetic. Launching DC into the world as a college student is a big deal for any mom. Sorry you can't seem to appreciate that.[/quote]

Oh my God spare us the drama!  I've "launched" more than one into college.  It's not that big of a deal.  [/quote]

Whoever you are DMV mom, you sound like a real sourpuss.  Once again, it's important only if you think it important enough to share, but others who may feel differently, well we are just cast aside as drama queens.

[b]My DC worked very, very hard for many years, and really hard during high school to get the results received.[/b]  I am going to celebrate from here to the moon and back, because I know the hard work, the sacrifice, and the commitment involved for DC to be in the spot they are in with college acceptance.  Sorry that you don't agree with my perspective on achievement, but this is a happy moment for me and my family, and I will share on facebook, etc., as a proud parent.

It's not about making others feel bad. It's about sharing our joy at DC's hard work and educational milestone.

Some may or may not get married.  Some may or may not have kids. I don't judge. But when those friends want to share their news on social media, I am here for them and celebrate their good fortune as well.

Not sure about you, but that's how we roll in our social media world, and it works for us.[/quote]

And here we go with more drama.  Newsflash:  lots of kids work hard.  Yours isn't unique.  [/quote]

Agree. Both my DCs worked hard and they would also be mortified if I posted now when so many of their friends DK where they will be headed in the fall. [/quote]
