Alive And Embarrassed Beats The Alternative, Even If It Doesn't Seem Like That Now
-
The Penn State "student" who was missing when his parents came to take him to his graduation, only to discover he hadn't enrolled in the Fall semester and wasn't on the graduation list, turned up safe coming but still graduating. You can imagine that he disappeared himself because he was embarrassed about telling his family that he was going to graduate when he wasn't. There was actually a story in a similar vein on "This American Life" in which a student was too embarrassed to tell his visiting father that he dropped out of school, so he lied about it what would you do if you found out your child had lied about going to college?
