I think there must be a lot of parents on this board with underachievers who are extremely jealous of other people's success.

[b]There is absolutely nothing wrong with being proud of a child being accepted into an [/b][b]elite college[/b].  [/quote]

[b]Or ANY college[/b].  I'm starting to see posts from friends' with seniors and I'm as happy for the one planning to go to a local state university as the one who is going to Brown.  I enjoy learning where my friends' kids will be going on this next big step in life.[/quote]

Good correction. And I agree. Even if it's [b]vocational school[/b].  You should be proud.  [/quote]

+1  I was as excited to read about a friend's daughter accepted to Harvard as I was for another friend's daughter who will be attending a fabulous cosmetology school in Florida and another friend's son who will be going to the Culinary Institute of America!  We need to celebrate accomplishments and good news!  I do not have a Facebook or other social media page but, to me, when I go to those sites, it is much more interesting and exciting to hear about an actual accomplishment of a friend or family member rather than what they thought about lunch at such and such place.[/quote]
