[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s a rude comment meant to belittle. Tell your kid not to engage. [/quote] It’s not a rude comment. Burying his head in the sand is a bad look. He should respond with something to the effect of “Yes, I’m very fortunate” This is the bare minimum of social skills. [/quote] Op here…I am shocked that this thread went 25 pages! My most popular thread ever (and yet, feeling quite unpopular due to everyone’s reactions ;)). Yes, of course I told DS that if it comes up again to be humble and say something like the pp suggested. We didn’t push the legacy angle with him so it wasn’t on his radar. He really drove a lot of the college application process and so it wasn’t a huge conversation. I know a lot of you won’t believe me, but it is true. [/quote]
