[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am more inclined to agree with the posters thinking it's about Covid

However, I am grateful that neither of our children are interested in joining Greek life, and both are at schools where that doesn't matter.  Paying for friends, and going through hazing (aka, risking your life), so not worth it.[/quote]

not going to argue with you anti greek people, yet again on this board because it does not matter a lick to me what your kids decide to do.  BUT my kids are both greek (sorority and fraternity) [b]and neither was hazed in anyway, [/b]certainly nothing life threatening or even close. My DS was never even drunk during his pledging, never pressured to drink or do anything he didn't think was fun. You can't paint the whole greek system with the same brush.[/quote]

Sure mom, because your kids share everything with you  :roll: [/quote]

They do actually. I have a great relationship with my kids - sorry that you do not. My DS in particular was not sold on the whole idea even after accepting a bid and said that if he was ever uncomfortable during pledging, he'd drop. We spoke about it often. I do know people who dropped other frats but no one from my son's and again he thought the whole thing was fun, if a bit long (wasn't initiated until end of school).[/quote]
