Amazing?[/quote]

Uhh. I find these social media postings creepy. Why would these schools do this? It's one thing to list the schools where your students got accepted, but it's another to post poofed up pictures of young men and women for the entire universe to gawk over. I expect children to do this stuff. Not grown adults.

It almost feels like some creepy modeling agency.

By the way, my kid's MCPS high school could post a bunch of Ivy and T20 ED accepted posts too, but they don't. [/quote]
+1.  This is such a poor taste I don't know where to begin. DC's MCPS school had a fair share of Ivy and T10 too last year. They don't do this. In fact one of the teachers gently reminds kids to take his peers' emotions into account.[/quote]

Are you always such a stick in the mud, PP? I love the posts and am happy for the kids. Sorry that is so hard for you to see.[/quote]

My kid got into an Ivy early and they would NEVER think of posting.  Very braggy.

Oh please. It's a life milestone. Congratulations to your kid. I'm happy for him/ her, even if you like to feign humility.  We're not all so fragile, PP, that we can't handle someone else's good news.[/quote]
You know quite well it isn't the parents who those posts impact. A lot of kids have a rough ride ahead and I guess you're the type who would just walk over them to announce your success.  Sickening.

You really think the kids don’t know? That no one talks about it? Give them some credit for not being the previous snowflakes you think they are. [/quote]
