You know ever since I can remember I was told AKA, so I never had the desire to do anything else. I will train my daughter the same way, a little brainwashing is good for the youth!
Well, we all know your little legacy will be built from ground up before she was born--like right after you got the ultrasound!!!

And I know some folks let they kids do all the "calls", "chants", only wear the "constitutionally dictated colors", have them sit in chapter meetings--so now they know all the secret stuff--and short of an all out MIP for them, these kids goto school and argue and fight over which group is better and why... Forget the fact that it's about community service.

Then when they get into college, the kids think they know something and they really don't and the parents are wondering why?

If anything, if I had a legacy, ('cuz for me it'd be the same way as your family), as soon as my daughter was a teenager, I would make sure (if willing) one of the undergrad chapter sorors would become her mentor--to like, "school her" on "some things"...
