[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP whose children aren't old enough to be looking at colleges yet, but who nevertheless some questions:

Does it have to be "bragging" if I post on an internet board where my DC was accepted and is going? What if I post that my child has been accepted at 5 nondescript, unremarkable schools? Is that bragging or just stating a fact? Is it only "bragging" if the  schools are perceived as "brag-worthy?"

Likewise, does it have to be bragging if I put a college sticker on my car? Is it only "bragging" if it is the college sticker of my child? What if it is *my* college sticker, does that make the brag (if it is a brag) okay? What if it's not a "brag-worthy" school, is the sticker okay then? Is this only relevant to college stickers, or is any bumper sticker effectively a brag of some kind?[/quote]
Exactly! And I'd love to read the answers to those questions. Many people in the area are very competitive. They're only bothered when they can't compete and fall short. Everyone sees the posts as stated facts except those whose egos are bruised.[/quote]
