They whisper and point at her and make her feel less than because she did not want to be a part of their sorority. Ladies, are we all so heartless that we don't understand this? If you think your sorority or your daughter does not do this, you might be very surprised to know how she treats other young women. and guys can be just as petty.

I'm sure that some will scream at me for this but ... we also have to realize that when we choose a decision that is in our personal best interest (leaving and organization) we cannot assume that everyone else is whispering and gossiping about us behind our backs. We have to have thicker skins and realize that the world doesn't revolve around us.
