[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am not embarrassed, just feel a little disappointed, although, I think they are actually in the right place. Everything happens for a reason. What I can't stand are these snooty people that when they ask where your kid is, they give you an "oh" like it isn't good enough. [/quote] My kids didn't go for or get into the Ivies or anything, and there's no shame in that. But they did end up at schools that would impress DCUM and that are better than any of the schools that their friends went to. I often detected a hit of embarrassment, disappointment, jealousy and defensiveness when discussing college acceptances. I actually think it affected friendships among parents. Very sad. [/quote]
