[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t do FB but I announced my kids’ athletic commitment after they had announced it. I don’t think it made many waves though because people ask me if DC has thought about college yet.

I know one person whose posts are so nauseating I predict the college one will be the absolute worst. Class rank is mentioned consistently in other posts. Scholarships have been mentioned in past as well. Bracing myself now for the deluge. [/quote]

Wait! You posted YOUR kids accomplishment but other peoples posts make you nauseated. I think if you are so fragile maybe FB too rough for you. [/quote]
No. The point which so many people here have made is: announce where your kid is going. Nothing else. I went on a girls’s weekend with seven of my closest friends, almost all of whom have kids in high school. We all have one more distant FB friend who had been posting exactly where/how both her seniors had been applying, exactly when they got in where and with exactly how much aid, and it went on for months. Everyone agreed that no one needed to see that.

I get the sense that the majority here are fine with the simple announcement of where your kid is going, at the end of the process. But there's a smaller group of PPs who strangely think any reference to college on social media is absolutely unbearable. They have issues.[/quote]
