[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is this for real?  OP how do you know all this?[/quote]

+1  Good reminder not to share too much about your kids.  This kid's parents probably thought they were commiserating with a friend over her testing and now she's on here talking about the girl like she's an idiot because she doesn't want to believe anything good could have happened for her.  Gross.[/quote]

Don't put it on social media, don't participate in the college athletic commitment ceremony in the high school gym, and don't spread falsehoods to other parents about your kid's alleged [i]full ride scholarship[/i] to a small division 3 college.[/quote]

Why not?  OP, you seem convinced that this student could never have been awarded even full tuition at a small school, or indeed any school.  Or that this student could have been welcomed onto a D3 team as part of the reason why the school wants them.  You seem certain that this CHILD'S success and their family's happiness for them are an elaborate lie concocted for social media and acted out before large crowds of people in public.

If you wanted an arrangement like this for your own kid, you would have had to have them apply to.a school that would embrace them like this.  Clearly you preferred not to.  But you are free to post what you like on social media about your own kid's successes, too, and to celebrate them.  You are also free to ignore what others post.[/quote]
