POV: freshman boy mom

Transcript

The frat boys laughed at me. Then I was taking Daniel to the Rush event. The meeting. Sponsored by Kanes Chicken at the house. He wanted to go on his own. I said no no no Daniel. I should meet the boys first to make sure that they're all right. After all, you can end up living there. I need to meet them and look at the house conditions. It was horrible. The house was disgusting. It clearly does not have a touch of a good mama like me. And the boys were rude. They were snickering. They were laughing. They were making jokes. Oh, it's so funny. His mom is there. So funny. He has a caring mama.
