I just see it as a mine field. She came to me looking for an opinon on whether to go or not, and her, not being sold on the idea one way or other, and me, frankly not sure how to guide. |
this. when my daughter was a freshman(different school) she thought about attending some fraternity rush parties, which were held in the evening the same days as sorority recruitment, which was a daytime event. i told her that it was up to her what she did, but that i wanted her to realize that she would be on display in an unsupervised situation, i.e. not organized sorority rush, where sorority members would be scrutinizing every move she made and the most innocent incident might be misconstrued (much like your scenario where your daughter might have a purely innocent conversation with a guy, who turns out to be the boyfriend of uber jealous susie sororitysister). the cons outweigh the pros in my book. not to mention that should she wait to attend a fraternity party until after rush, her sorority sisters could warn her off any douche bag guys that always prey on freshmen girls.
my daughter decided to wait until rush was over to attend any fraternity parties. her social life did not suffer.
