[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unfortunately the letter of recommendation didn’t meet the threshold for an interview and essay submittal opportunity  in which he might of been able to share some of who he is and what he has accomplished. Following is some of what  I wrote to his school OA & Walls:

“Something doesn’t seem fair and this just isn’t a parent complaining and trying to make him better than he is. My son is a well rounded student, vast international travel experience, trilingual, ( English, Spanish, Chinese), multi cultural parents/ family, climbed to the summit of  Mt. Kilimanjaro at age 13, achieved a green belt in karate at 11, developing into a strong and able soccer player, has had a high lexile reading/ comprehension score since 4th grade reading then at 11 grade level and now at 12 grade level; he has always performed well in math,  high spelling bee placements over the years , he plays piano superbly and is a good singer and performed in several talents shows, has been in the school musical,  at a young age he has produced some incredible color animes figures. He is and has been in the OA swim team the last 2 years as well as the soccer team this year.  He has the uncanny personality that allows him to have a wide range off different type of friends and relate well to them all. He is a good friend to many and is always willing to help and truly would of been an asset to Walls which offered  a more intimate and demanding educational opportunity and environment to achieve his potential .”
Acceptance as difficult as it is, is in the works. 
Thanks for reading. [/quote]

All this does is reek of privilege. I understand that you and your child are disappointed but perhaps you should consider this an opportunity to humble yourself. It just seems that you've built a resume for a middle schooler and are now pissed that everything you wanted isn't what you're going to get. You've tried to really stick it to them, but more than likely an email like this will elicit gratitute for avoiding another set of delusional parents.[/quote]
