I want to believe this was a situation that the family had been dealing with for quite a while. I have a hunch at the point that mom went to HQ to discuss the situation, the girls grades may have been being affected, etc.
We as parents send our children off to college & we try to allow them to learn, grow, & mature - but there are plenty of times when they still need guidance, a shoulder to cry on, & someone to step in & help.
Sometimes 18 to 21 year old girls need their mothers more then 14 yr olds do...& until you are mother of one - Please do not be so quick to judge a mother's choice to assist her daughter if she was crying for help. (if the girl accusations are correct or not) (once a mother cat - always a mother cat )

Because if my child were being abused in the ways she claims, I would immediately remove her from the harmful situation, not expect a national officer to wave a magic wand and make the situation go away. I'm smart enough to know that my involvement in that way will only make things worse, even if the immediate threat is removed by nationals. It seems to me there's a heck of a lot more that happened here and I doubt anyone will ever know all the details.
My child's well being is much more important than any sorority membership, and it seems to me that the mother or the daughter were willing to continue the claimed abuse simply because she wanted to be a sorority member. I still can't figure out why she wanted to continue to be sisters with girls she found so horrible.
