<p>Luckily, we never had to exercise veto power. Our D's friend got into Harvard and Boston College. The whole family went to Harvard, as the baby she was expected to go to Harvard also. She wanted to go to BC, but decided on Harvard. The college counselor questioned her decision, which made her parents upset. Now, a few weeks before school starts, she has decided to take a year off. I wonder what will happen next year.</p>
