We have seen posts to PNMs that have been quite insulting, not saying that has happened on this thread however. Anyway... daughter has seen the post and replies (although not too happy that I posted a topic about her!) I promised that I wouldn't do it again without consulting her, just wanted to prove my point about what she might say negatively about high school and after reading this she agrees how to address that issue. One quick question... Was I wrong to assume that parents of PNM's couldn't post too? If this wasn't the case, then I apologize. From reading past threads, there seems to be posts from PNM's, Alumni, Parents etc..Please direct me to the correct forum for parent support.

Having been the daughter who needed pushing to see my mom's point of view (and yes, she's almost always right, I'll admit it now), I understand why you decided to post here. But try to get her to ask questions herself from now on, because it'll be good practice for recruitment. (And I do not mean this to sound like I'm preaching to a mom-I'm not one...but as it pertains to this situation, in the long run she'll be more at ease during recruitment and her new member period if she gets used to asking questions herself. She'll have a lot of them, everyone does!)
