[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DD is a smart cookie. She did not tell anyone where all she was/is applying nor did she tell where she got accepted. She is the least stressed senior I have seen. There are many kids in HS who are falling apart right now, because they made a big deal about applying in a particular college and then did not get accepted.

So, please, tell your kids to keep a lid on their list of colleges and admission status. They can post which college they are going to when the time comes.  Every thing does not have to be shared on social media.

It's great if your DD is some self-possessed, brilliant sphinx, but it helps some kids figure out where they want to go if they talk to their friends.  It doesn't necessarily have to be posted about on social media, although I'd leave this up to the kids to decide, but this notion that kids are silos is ridiculous.

I don't sense kids at our high school are falling apart at all.  They congratulate each other and seem to know intuitively that it will all work out in the end.   There will be a place for everyone      [/quote]
