[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Vomiting a little.  I already thought that that this kind of thing was basically paying to make friends but parents are supposed to get into it too?  I had no idea.  So ridiculous.[/quote]

Ha ha, I clicked on this thread to see just how quickly some jealous mom would react to OP in disgust.  You pulled the trigger even more quickly than I thought!

I still remember the parents' formal at our daughter's sorority.  It was very nice.  As I recall, it was black tie?   One of the sisters came from a billionaire family with well known parents and they actually showed up.  We got to meet them.  It was interesting!  No harm done at all.

That was UVA, btw.[/quote]

Hmm.  My sister was a pi phi at uva and never would have mentioned this to my parents who couldn’t have afforded it  and their presence might have been embarassing for her with her richer “sisters.”  I do wonder if it’s awkward for the girls who aren’t from that sort of family.

I had this exact thought.  I would have never ever brought my parents to something like this.  :([/quote]

We weren't forced to go.  We were invited.  Our daughter very much wanted us to go.  Sure, we weren't poor at the time.  But there were plenty of other girls in the sorority who were of more modest means than us and all the parents came and appeared to enjoy themselves  I guess we had a better relationship with our kid than you did with your parents.  Or at least our family was less uptight.

I guess your families never had any occasion to ever dress up and go out together?  Sad.
