My daughter went to school where there is a KD chapter. As a little girl she always told me she wanted to be a KD. She refused to go through recruitment when she started school, but I had told her, if she decided to go through recruitment, she was to choose a house that is right for her. KD was the right house for me on the campus where I was going, with the ladies who were collegians at that time. If I went through recruitment today, who knows if KD would be the right house on that campus with those members now.
I am very active in my alumnae chapter (was president for 3 years) and was on our national volunteer board for 2 years. I was disappointed that I can't share KD with her, but recognized that she is a VERY independent woman. I did tell her, "I don't care if you go through recruitment or not, but my only rule is that you cannot just sit in your dorm and do nothing." She found groups that made her happy to belong and do what she wanted.
In our Alumnae Chapter, there are quite a few women who have daughters who have not joined KD and they are happy that their girls found someplace that made them happy.
