Erin Foster, the daughter of Canadian producer and musician David Foster, posted a screenshot on Instagram of a text her father sent her, where he gives his two cents on the college admissions scandal enveloping Lori Loughlin, Felicity Huffman, dozens of other rich parents, and their apparently mediocre children. David wrote—and for some reason, I imagine him sitting back and chuckling to himself as he composed the text—“Thank god you didn’t want to go to college-I’d Be in jail right now!!” Lollll, DAD.
Erin captioned the screenshot: “Thanks for the confidence, Dad.” But honestly, the best thing about this text is that was seemingly unsolicited. According to the screenshot, it wasn’t as if Erin and David had been texting about what will happen to Olivia Jade and what the college admissions scandal reveals about the United States and then he decided to crack a joke about a) his willingness to do crimes to get his daughter into college, b) his daughter’s poor grades, or c) both? He just went for it.
