[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Be proud of your acceptance and don’t let anyone downplay it because of legacy status. Jealous parents and kids will try to knock your admissions. Just smile and celebrate more. If they are friends they will be happy for you. If not, let them cry harder.[/quote]

It’s always so interesting to see parents who probably consider themselves good liberals become absolutely Ayn Randian when faced with the mere idea of leveling the playing field.

Why are you so obsessed not letting your kids understand just how much they benefit from a  significantly uneven playing field?[/quote]

Enjoying that boogeyman you created to scare yourself? [/quote]

Why can’t your kids handle hearing the truth of their admissions? It isn’t a statement of their moral worth. It is just facing reality. [/quote]

Reality is if my kid got in they got in. because of the work they did.

All of you they only got in because of "legacy" are ignorant when it comes to college admission.

"legacy" in college admissions means mommy or daddy bought a building. [/quote]
