SWTXBelle, your position seems completely reasonable. I don't think I'd hold it against the entire organization, and I like to think I'd give the chapter another shot after I knew that particular group of girls were gone. But if you move on, you move on, so as you might get involved in supporting your hypothetical kid's chapter, who knows whether you'd come back to your own?
And think most people would agree if that they wouldn't be particularly upset if a chapter cut a daughter who wasn't interested in the chapter. It's only if you think she's dreaming of your GLO that it would hurt you.
And legacies being interested in the legacy GLO is a peculiar aspect of the legacy policies too. I wrote a bunch of recs this year, and as I was filling them out, I would think a little bit about the chances that I thought a girl would end up in any of her legacy chapters if she had them. For every chapter that I though would cut a girl, there was a girl that I knew wouldn't be interested in that chapter of her legacy organization, or so I think. We'll see in a few more weeks, I guess.
But it is weird, and I don't think I'm alone in this, that I'm willing to give the girls who don't go with the legacy chapter a pass in a way I won't give the group. What accounts for this unfairness on my part?
