[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is definitely a way to post without sounding braggy.  I will use an example of one of my FB friends a couple of years ago.

What she could have done:

Larla has just decided to attend Vanderbilt in the fall!  We are so proud of her!

What she did instead:

Larla has just decided to attend Vanderbilt in the fall!   Her generous merit package enticed her to attend this school instead of the others that accepted her including, Harvard and Princeton.  We are so proud of her!![/quote]

I saw a reverse of that post along the lines of -- "DD is going to [obscure] Big state U, it was a really brutal year in admissions for everyone and no one got in anywhere good" (as if the top 100 schools remained empty that year). So sad to see her back-handed slight of her truly awesome kid, who no doubt will do really well.[/quote]
Oh man, I feel badly for that kid and not because she’s going to [obscure] Big state U.

Also, I did see on FB that one of my friend’s kids transferred from DCUM favorite Elon to [obscure] Big state U and he is so much happier.[/quote]
