Whew! I was just reading this post and got a hot flash at the thought of my niece joining anything else but AKA.
Whew, that was scary for a minute. LOL.
I can't even see it but stranger things have happened I guess. LOL.
When I told her that I was an AKA a few years ago when she was about 2 or 3 she replied, "*I'm* an AKA!" I loooooved hearing that little voice say that!
Maybe I better start indoctrinating her now at the ripe old age of 7. I can't risk her joining another organization. LOL.
However, I STILL say that she will pay for it HERSELF. If she wants it, let her save up her money and pay for it. She will be a capable woman...I hope.

I don't have a daughter but if I did I will be honest and say that in my heart I would want her to be a soRHOr, but I would support her no matter what her decision. My family consisted of only Delta's (2 aunts, godmother, 3 cousins) until one of my cousins took a turn down AKA ave. Although there was some pressure on her to be a Delta, she had to go with what was right for her. Another cousin after her also happily joined AKA. Fast forward to me and to another cousin (who both were being groomed for Delta/AKA by the other family members), we took a stRHOll down SGRho lane. It was the best choice for us. I am grateful that my family accepted our choice and was proud of us. Fast forward again to 2 of my little cousins, (who were being lightly pushed by all of us) and they have both joined Zeta. Everyone must choose their own path. I will be happy for my nieces/cousins/daughter decision although I would prefer SGRHO to be that decision. With that being said, I'm not so sure that I would be supportive of my daughter joining a sorority that is NOT one of the D9.  |
