[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The other parent may be anxious because their child hadn't heard from their top choice yet or they got rejected from their top choice and were still dealing with it.

Some people have difficulty being happy for others.

Could be many things but who cares? Your child is going to their 1st choice. [/quote]

This is not about being happy for others! How can you be so clueless? It is in poor taste and is bragging! Let me guess, you also posted it on Facebook or some other nonsense. Grow up, OP. [/quote]

I'm not the OP but I do feel that some people react to others good news by an immediate thought to how this compares to them. If that makes sense. I was trying to be nice in my reply but the point was it doesn't matter how others react.

My daughters had good luck with college acceptances and I never told most people until the girls decided where they were going and then, only when asked. It is annoying to hear and see constant bragging. Since I am no saint, my family would sometimes chuckle privately at some of the stuff people were bragging about. Family secret. Shhh.
