Yeah. I had the opportunity to talk to some advisors from chapters who deal with this kind of thing all the time. They say you wouldn't believe some of the things that come from parents' mouths over the phone during recruitment when they are upset.
I get that there is hurt involved when your kid is cut, but it's important for alumnae to remember that the active (whom you just ripped a new one over the phone) is YOUR sister and she deserves to be spoken to like a human being.
And also, you might just want to continue involvement at some point.
It is really difficult to continue involvement after the entire chapter knows that you said "Well that's ok because this chapter has become nothing but a chapter full of skanks and I wouldn't want my Becky to be part of this chapter anyway!!!"
Embarrassing.
