I get that about the responsibility of scholarships (and in general), which was part of why I didn't party in college (the other part being that crowds make me uncomfortable, so the one party I did attend made me decide I wasn't missing much). That being said, I think I would have reacted the same way as Sophie if someone made a point to tell me that I shouldn't go to parties because that was my decision to make. And while I definitely understand the impulse to lecture people when you're concerned about their behavior, this can often result in an eye roll and being tuned out (as I have learned from my middle-school-aged niece). Since Zig doesn't actually get a say in what Sophie can and can't do, I think he'd do better picking his battles. Especially since he's apparently checking her grades without her permission, which I'm pretty sure is a privacy breach, and adding in nagging about calling their mother. I guess...I agree with Zig that she should be behaving a certain way, but I also agree with Sophie that he doesn't get to tell her what to do. I'm sure she'll come around after some dramatic event happens.
