[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  I have no sense that my kids "deserve" financial aid.  In fact, I posted my question on here largely with the suspicion that we wouldn't even qualify for most financial aid. If I thought we did and would just use that to pay for the school, I wouldn't have asked the question.  My question was primarily for people who potentially fall in middle -- may not qualify for financial aid but don't have a ton of disposable income.  To be honest, the thread has been helpful in part because it gives me a sense that perhaps we actually *could* qualify for some aid, although I don't know.

This sense of "rich people things" is truly offensive.  I think it's just coming from one PP, but even so, it's obscene.  There are no "rich people things" that others have no right to access.  There are things that are expensive and things that are less expensive or free, but anyone of any class and background has the right to access any of those things if they are able to find a way to afford them.  Sure, it takes money, but if we can find a way to sacrifice other things (as many of the PPs noted doing) in order to come up with the funds to afford something like this, then there's no reason why people who have more money than us should feel it's exclusively their purview.[/quote]

OK, now I think you're just stupid. It's not about your "right" to access private school! You don't have a right to private school unless you can pay for it. Exactly what other kind of secret do you think there is about this? Can't you do math?[/quote]
