[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I asked to see the essay after applications were done. [/quote] Why?[/quote] You aren’t interested in seeing how your kid describes themself for college admissions? The essay was cute and sweet and interesting (to me at least). Actually now that I think about it I think I read it for typos right before it was submitted. [/quote] Right? Some of these posters floor me. They have so little interest in their children as individuals. I wonder if they had them just to check a box. “Why” poster, are you a dad?[/quote] This post was fine until the casual sexism. FWIW I am the poster you responded to (who read my kid’s essay) and I am a dad. [/quote] The poster did not assume your gender, they asked. Perhaps you are uncomfortable, because you fit the stereotype of an uninvolved father? (Not even understanding why someone would want to read their child’s essay?????)[/quote]
