So anyway, Day 3 and I'm hearing from dd about DEF house, even though ABC had been her favorite by far. Seems that her roommate(whom she has known for 5 days!) has several friends from high school in DEF house and now dd thinks that is the one for her. Plus she is telling me that she has heard blah, blah blah about some of the other houses. I tried to tell her not to listen to tent talk and if she is hearing it while visiting, that is dirty and she needs to not get involved. She is nervous about the next day which will involve large cuts for many of the PNMs. The next day she calls in a panic because she has been cut by a house where she was a legacy, she thought they liked her, BUT she didn't even like them???!!! I'm thinking I should drive up there and just slap her but this is her deal not mine. Anyway, she is all excited b/c she still has DEF, ABC, and three others. This is where I think she was shocked that she had been cut by anyone. Many of the PNMs have had very limited experience with rejection of any kind. And this is where as moms, we need to provide support for our dds but NOT take it personal. Remember, they are the ones going through rush, not us.
