I obviously didn't get the message that presents were needed each day of the week! We sent flowers and are sending bid day gifts, but every day??? Does that make me a bad mom?

You are not a bad mom if you didn't send your daughter gifts everyday! I know way back in 1996 my parents didn't know about all of gifts either and I got flowers instead! You will have plenty of time (think b-day/holidays) to shower her with gifts with her new sorority letters!

I personally would not hang out in the Union when they get their invite list. Remember this week is for YOUR daughter not for you. If she wants to tell you where she is going each round she can text you when the parties are over or the next day. But I would give her space. Plus, you don't want to look like a helicopter parent! Who knows if Panhellenic will ask you to leave but I'm going to think they will ask you to leave. Maybe I feel this way because I've been an advisor for so long I can understand how a PNM needs her privacy. Let her find her own home. ALL of the sororities at Ole Miss are amazing so she cannot go wrong. Have faith in her and she will find her new home!
