It really doesn't matter if I understand it, they won't, and they get to choose.

Did you go through what the OP went through with a parent? At that age?

If the answer is no, then STFU. If the answer is yes, then it might have helped the OP more to tell her you understand than to just flat out tell her she's too old. (If you did that in a PM, please accept my apologies.)

ps: Your condescending attitute toward 18-21 year olds (i.e. the majority of them won't be able to get the situation) doesn't help your case.

And your condescending attitude towards everyone doesn't help yours.

Did you go through recruitment in the South, or do you have any other involvement or experience with recruitments in (or near) the (deep) South where recs are customary?

Do you have any experience with 18-21 year olds participating in a Southern recruitment, where recs are customary (as some indicator of recruitment culture), as either a parent or chapter advisor?

Did you consider taking your own advice?

Except the OP's question was about her potential recruitment, not caring for a parent.
