<p>One of the schools at the top of my son’s list is Michigan; my husband was an OSU Buckeye. He has NEVER tried to dissuade our son from pursuing his goal of attending Michigan. (If he did, he’d have a more bitter battle with me than he ever had with the Wolverines 
) The OP’s question simply seems silly and narcissistic. This is not about you, it’s about your son. I agree with blueiguana…put your son’s stickers on your car, stand up proud, and support him. Jeesh!</p>
