If any part of this is valid, I would say that this is my main gripe with the watered down pledge programs. You can't force the pledges to do anything because that would be hazing. You do nothing but coddle them, give them gifts and shield them from the facts of life. Then the minute they are initiated, the honeymoon's over.
If the OP (along with many other girls who disaffiliate) would be shown from the start that being in a sorority is WORK and that much is expected of them, I don't think we would have this problem. Just because you're asking someone to work doesn't mean you don't care about them...but if you've coddled them for 6 weeks I can see where they would get confused.
This all being said...defriending your little? As Jen said of Brad, there's a sensitivity chip missing somewhere.
