We have seen posts to PNMs that have been quite insulting, not saying that has happened on this thread however. Anyway... daughter has seen the post and replies (although not too happy that I posted a topic about her!) I promised that I wouldn't do it again without consulting her, just wanted to prove my point about what she might say negatively about high school and after reading this she agrees how to address that issue. One quick question... Was I wrong to assume that parents of PNM's couldn't post too? If this wasn't the case, then I apologize. From reading past threads, there seems to be posts from PNM's, Alumni, Parents etc..Please direct me to the correct forum for parent support.
This is exactly what I am talking about. You posted here without your daughter's permission in some sort of random exercise to prove that mommy is right. Then you provided all the details to identify the school and even provided information that can help identify her. It's her freaking recruitment. Let her do it the way she feels comfortable and to be herself so she ends up in the place that's the best fit for her based on her personality.

And of course you continue to ignore the most important advice you've been given because it's not part of your "mommy is right, see?" agenda. Your daughter needs recs at the school she's attending no matter what the Greek life office is telling you.
