I don't think it's so much a "backlash"... but more of a topic that is related to the original one.
1. There was an article saying that some parents may be forced to pay their children's GLO dues
2. Some people said that parents should be forced to do it.
3. Some also gave the arguement that they shouldn't be forced to it because it is the child's choice whether or not to go greek. Some people go greek knowing their parents are going to foot the bill. Others go greek knowing they will be paying the bill either because their parents don't support them to that extent (i.e. paying for GLO membership) or because they choose to be financially responsible for the decisions they are making in college.
4. Some people said their parents pay their bills because they don't want their kids to work. I think when that whole "parents who don't support their children while in college puts them at a disadvantage" thing came up is when it became more of the dominant topic in the thread.... people (myself included) are just responding to that particular comment.
AOIIBrandi- please don't take this in a rude way, but no one asked you to feel bad because your parents paid for your college stuff?

So I'm a little confused why that is even there?
