[quote=Anonymous]To me, the problem is not that you said no private school. Public school is fine. It's not even that she applied and you said no. It's that going into it, she was lead to believe that she'd be able to go if she got in - and she had no reason to believe otherwise. That's pretty irresponsible on your part. If you have doubts, why couldn't you have just said six months ago when she was applying - "Well DD, we understand you're interested in private school. If you got in, there's a chance you may be able to go, and a chance you may not due to finances. You can apply, but don't get your hopes up...we'll have to wait until financial aid comes in and our finances are solidified. If you're willing to go through the process will the knowledge you may not be able to go even if you got in, you can do that." That's how my parents' handled college for me. [/quote]
