Confused about request for parent LOR

I wrote what I thought was a very thoughtful letter, illuminating my daughter’s mind in a way that she would never think to and which would not have surfaced in traditional LOR’s, drawing upon anecdotes that illustrated how she thought about things. To a moral certainty she would have been admitted anyway. But it’s barely possible that the letter at least helped her in terms of some of the perks.

By all means, avoid the “brag sheet” syndrome.
