Sidwell parents are a different breed, PP. Not ALL Big 3 schools would tolerate this. You don't see STA parents demanding, " SHOW me the ( insert anything ), making calls to CCO from a blocked number, calling an Ivy with dirt about their kid's HS classmate-  Ever.

Any school can have a parent that develops an onset of mental health issues.[/quote]

Look, as a (fellow?) Sidwell parent, you aren't doing anyone any favors by revising history--it was not simply one parent that ran the college counseling office out of the school. Two, it’s not cool to speculate about an identifiable individual’s health profile on dcum.
