Moms should NEVER put this type of pressure on their daughters. What if your legacy chapter keeps you, but as you get closer to the end of the week you fall in love elsewhere and want to join that chapter? Make the decision that is best for you. Let you mom know that you are thrilled that she found a sorority that she loves dearly, and that you want the same opportunity. If that happens to be the legacy chapter then great. I've seen legacies who felt pressure to join their mom's group wind up miserable because they really wanted to be in a different sorority. Follow YOUR heart. You are 18. This isn't about you living out your mom's dream but instead about you making your own dreams. (and if you do get released, consider it a gift from that sorority that you will be able to freely choose the chapter that is best for you, without having to deal with this ridiculous mommy pressure. Let mom know that you are OK, excited about the remaining parties on your schedule, and have no doubt that one of those sororities will become as special to you as hers is to her. Invite her to share your excitement.) To the moms reading this, since apparently you are out there: some chapters have over 400 legacies participating in Recruitment. Logistically many have to be released, because obviously that number is much, much larger than the pledge class will be. This is an emotional week for your daughter. Why make it worse?
