Well, we aren't forced - it is more of a matter of feeling some sort of obligation to our alumnae.
I mean - like in the second situation I gave, the girl didn't like us but she told her mother a completely different story after she was cut from everything. If we would have told her mother sorry, but we don't want to pledge her - it would have come down to it being *our* fault, even though she cut us. The mom is going to side with her daughter.
Argh - I have some stories that I would share if they weren't about ritual, but I can say that whenever her mother came to watch different things we do before initiation, she was giving some of the girls (MY SISTERS) these terrible looks and rolling her eyes at them when they were openning up to the entire chapter. Excuse me, I know that you are an alumnae and stuff - but please don't roll your eyes and be snotty towards new people - I mean after all this is the chapter you want your daughter to be in.
I don't know - I guess I just don't understand. On one side you want to make your alumnae happy, and on the other side you want to do what is best for your chapter.
