[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well I like to remember relevant moments in my kids life. Maybe I will remember college acceptance not when they were accepted to overpriced and overrated schools. [/quote]

You won't. Know why? Because sweet Larla and her competitive friends will all know that the University of the Elite is dropping decisions at 4pm on Friday. So, rather than coming home as you directed her to, Larla will gather around in a circle with these gossipy girls, and they will all open their decisions together at the same time. You will find out that Larla was accepted to UE when you open Instagram and see her bestie's story, which shows her shrieking in the background. And after all the $$$ spent on prep courses and tutors and consultants, you will feel so betrayed that you weren't there to bear witness to the confetti-filled screen and the joyful screams that were followed by a touching moment of gratitude, that you will pop a Klonopin and climb into bed for the night. By morning, it'll be a blur.

Happens to the best of us.[/quote]
