[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Low key with individual acceptances.  Those were kept in the family. No one outside the family and HS counselor even knew where my ED kid had applied (or that she had applied ED). Once an actual decision was made (which was last minute with kid 1 and ED with kid 2) AND the kid in question said it was okay, a social media post.  So December for 1 kid and May 1 for the other.   Along the lines of a picture of a kid in a college sweatshirt and a caption saying: Kid X has decided they will be attending College next year to study Y. We are very excited for them and can’t wait to see what adventures lie ahead.

T20-50 range schools.

This was pretty standard among DCs’ friends and I was genuinely excited to learn where each of my kid’s friends was going. The news dribbled out from. December through May.

Yes to car stickers (which replaced their FCPS high school’s stickers).

But, my FB Friends number well below 200 and I regularly purge. If I don’t genuinely care about you, I’m probably not following you. [/quote]

+1000

My FB friends is less than 250 (hubby has a huge family so family and family friends are at least 80-90 of them).  If you are on my feed, you are someone I care about/someone I want to hear about---Love seeing my HS friends and their families and same for college, even though we all live all over the country. So when I post about my kids, it's to keep everyone updated, and we don't post that much (maybe 3x/month)   If you would get upset that I posted about my kid's life, then I'd probably purge them from my feed.
