So you don’t ever care what others do? Not ever? I find that hard to believe.

Believe it. I care when it affects me and my family, but other than that, no.


To each their own, have fun with it.

So what is your kid planning for their big reveal?

My son did not do a reveal. He just told us when he got accepted to the school that he really wanted to go that was where he wanted to go. Some seniors at his high school set up a Instagram page for seniors to post their college choices. He posted his choice there. That’s where other parents found out where my kid was going. Their kids saw my kids college choice.

I blame social media for this, along with gender reveals (tacky), promposals (ugh), and most of the other ills of our society.

Any reason for fun, joy, excitement in these difficult times-I'm all for it. When my kid decides, we're going to make a party of it. Thanks for the idea!

My sentiment exactly.

Reveal, like this?

The promposals are cringe-y too.

Apparently students now "reveal" their school choice to family and friends, very similar to "gender reveals" (also obnoxious) for expecting couples? I just saw a facebook post where someone's daughter "revealed" her school choice with a cake--with frosting in the school colors inside.
Siena college has a whole list of things to do, including a powder cannon! https://www.siena.edu/news/story/10-creative-ways-to-announce-your-college-decision/?msclkid=bbf81695af5511ec85b1d6ef224a9d7c

Even assuming that you are inclined to make a spectacle of yourself, Sienna isn't exactly powder cannon worthy.

Man you seem to care a lot about what other people do.

I blame LeBron James for this inanity.

So embarrassed for anyone who would do this.

Omg - not another one of these things.
