[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP here, with a junior, and just want to say hang in there!  I can imagine it would feel hard as a parent and appreciate you taking to an anonymous online forum too vent.  With how hard college admissions seem, I imagine my kid won't get their first choice either.  It feels inevitable.  I also have to laugh that lids are both expected to not get their hearts set on an outcome but also pushed to ED with a very thoughtful reason as to why a school is a best choice... but I digress. :)

While some posts are unhelpful, lots of good advice on staying positive, hoping for good orientation, and even transferring if necessary.  He is lucky at the end of the day bc he has a parent who clearly cares a lot about him.

OP here.  Thank you, and I really appreciate the kind words.  I feel like you got me. :)  You win my favorite person today award :)[/quote]

PP here, I read your original post, and felt the same way.  :)  Anyway, thanks for the kindness back -- the internet is a wild place and it feels good to know people like you still take time to be kind.  [/quote]
