I just read through for more of the mother's comments (thanks for pointing these out as I had skipped them by accident the first time). It sounds like the after investigating their options, they have fallen in love with Iowa State and are realizing that it was probably good they Virginia Tech didn't take them as it allowed them to find a school that suits their child better.
I am very happy for them. There really are a ton of great schools with lots of different personalities. I guess instead of trying to force my child to be someone he is not, I would rather spend my time helping him find the place(s) that will allow him to thrive!
