I dont think you have offended anyone girl, i am sure many people feel the same way.
Im going through a similar issue with my son, most of hes classmates get financial aid (those parents get it) i tried to apply last year, after a friend told me, they got it, so why wouldnt we get it. They also run their own business, and she has a parttime job, i know they have a high income. Well, back to the point, they refused us, according to them, our income over the past years was higher then average. I honestly dont know what we do wrong, i always pull on the short end of the stick. You are right Cindy, it just isnt fair!!
