Sometimes, legacies don't WANT an invite. So they act accordingly.
Not saying they are outright bitchy, but some of them have at look of "don't want to be here" going on, and they're just obviously uninterested.
So they get cut, and mom is wondering how on Earth it happened, not realizing that her kid didn't want to go XYZ in the first place.
She obviously doesn't want to cut XYZ (mom would be upset) so she just gets cut herself. She'd also rather be cut than tell mom she's not interested.
I think our policies are in place so that we don't have to bid THAT legacy and she can seek out opportunities elsewhere.

You know, I had a legacy sit down with me a pref one year and ask my, "Why should I pledge AOII? Just because my mom was an AOII?" She said it with such an attitude that it really put me off. At that point I told her, "Look, if you don't want to be here, don't put us on your bid list, because if I see you coming down my hallway tomorrow, it better be because you want to be there." By the time pref came around, I wasn't going to play that game.
