I keep telling her all that but she has put on her big girl pants and make some decisions. I'm not there to hold her hand or fix things or stomp my feet or whatever unhappy parents do in high school. She'll have to live with the outcome. I've talked to her until I don't have much else I can say. We shall see.

I feel for you AUMOM..as moms it is so hard to be so helpless..especially when we know more than they do. There are many, many girls that get thier third choice and go on to realize that they can't see themselves anywhere eles. I have even seen girls decline thier bid and then later regret it once they get to know other girls that did take thier second or third choice and are happy about it.

What it comes down to is if she wants to be greek or not at this point. Like someone eles suggested..have her go to the new member activites..she has nothing to lose because she cant join another sorority for a year. She doesn't have to initiate if she doesn't want to. She may find her people and love it after a while..hugs to both of you!!

I would also encourage her to stay away from the #1 girls..they are doing nothing but confusing her and giving her false hope. They arent really her friends if they are telling her otherwise. If they are telling her that they will get her in next year...we all know alot can change in a year and they can't really get anyone in..it's the chapter's decision.
