^^^ You must be out of your raggedy skull coming in with TWO posts in 18 months (it's up above) trying to redirect somebody's convo, especially when our comments are related. If you don't understand what our big deal, just ask without trying to be smart about it...because you weren't.

It is one thing when a 3 or 4 year old is doing it because they really don't understand what they're doing.

It's another thing when an older child continues to do it and eventually starts to believe and expect that XYZ is already theirs by right for the claiming because Mommy/Daddy/etc is in XYZ. In fact, too many kids today see it as a right, not a privilege or honor that it is. The kids probably don't have the first understanding of any behind-the-scenes elements, i.e. the community service, the 2 hour plus meetings to stay organized, that members are very aware of. IMO, it's a shame when some of our fellow Greeks only expose their sons, daughters, etc. to the fun side but not the business side.

Therefore, your analogy of preparing them for a future profession that anyone has a right to pursue and expect to be doesn't quite compare to a child already believing that s/he can rep for a D9 org.
So, I can't speak for my soror, but I know I have more issue with the adults themselves, not the children.
