[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We try to provide a safe, comfortable childhood then boom! At the end of it all, the devastating rejection. Will it make them stronger and more resilient or bitter?[/quote] OP here. Everyone’s comments are helpful. To clarify, when I say “we” I mean all these parents (including me) who are showing so much angst with the college results this week. Yes, my child’s original list was reach heavy and they adjusted to safer schools and I think they will be fine. They lived through the loss of many beloved pets, their mother fighting breast cancer, the pandemic, sitting on the basketball bench a whole season, not being invited to sleepovers, not cast in musicals, etc, etc. As I write this I realize they’ll be okay. They will process it and I will too. [/quote] Thanks for clarifying about your kid. They will be fine and even great. Wishing them best of luck and their mother a full recovery.[/quote]
