[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with Op completely - my kid is planning to attend a good school, but was accepted into significantly better schools.  He has been subject to so much pressure from peers and their parents that he is settling and making a big mistake.  It has caused my DC great emotional distress and made him question his own decisions.  I can't stand the DMV and the snobbish behavior of people - DCUM of course takes it to a completely new level![/quote]

This. DC got accepted to UNC and UVA and decided to go to UNC. People, including parents, have acted like DC is going to a terrible school [b]and keep asking why DC would turn down UVA for UNC[/b]. Just congratulate the kid and move on.[/quote]

"I'm really excited to be moving to Chapel Hill. The people there are authentic, interesting, and kind, not at all like this area."

sincerely,

A Chapel Hill resident[/quote]

This. I am a Virginian who also went to UNC; many of the UVA graduates are the worst kind of bullies and snobs. Thankfully I am not from the DC area; Chapel Hill was awesome, and the kids who are going there will be so grateful to be out of the DC area bubble once they get there.

Just ignore the bullies, and consider now the kids know who are really their friends and who aren't.[/quote]
