Not gonna lie...that sounded hella creepy to me. So, some poor girl who did absolutely NOTHING wrong except having a mom who is overzealous and shares a little too much has to "pay the consequences"? And you're justifying it?

Oh my.. It's true.. You really do live in Happy Pony Rainbow Land, huh?
Look, if I'm holding your hand and you decide to jump off a cliff, I pay for your stupid decision. I never said the daughter deserves to have all of her hopes and dreams crushed! I simply said that if you do something stupid, you can't be surprised when shit hits the fan. And you definitely can't blame us nice GCers, who only tried to help the mother out by telling her to shut up.
Does it suck that she ruined her daughter's shot at getting into a sorority? Yes. Should she be surprised at the outcome of her decision to not keep her mouth shut? No. Like I said a little ways back.. We tell the truth, and people don't want to hear it. Too bad.
ETA: p.s. how is that opinion "creepy"? It's not like I said I think it'd be a good idea to stare in your bedroom window all night..
