People telling you you’re “privileged” or that other kids would love to be in your situation are jerks. It’s sick what they’re saying. You’ve succeeded against all the disadvantages, and you deserve a great education at somewhere you love.





What, I hope you aren’t raising your kids with this same mentality. Or maybe you are a kid, because only a childish person would respond like that. This is exactly why she is confused. I am sure a very high percentage of kids going to college would have not even questioned the Vandy offer. Some people Just expect to much. The World owes you nothing! Who is anyone to say who deserves what? There are no free rides on this planet. How childish!
