[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A good friend's child recently wrote about how she spent every summer in her dad's hometown. I always thought is was a summer of privilege - beautiful house on the lake, mom SAH so had the flexibility to be there for the summer. It was presented as the relationship she had with her grandmother. [/quote] You have to be careful with these topics. One admissions officer said recently (at some info session we were at) that writing about grandparents is one of the most common topics and can be a challenge because too many of them end up being about the grandparent and do not provide a window into the applicant.[/quote]
