<p>I can only tell you how felt when our kids were given scholarships. We had planned and saved to send them to college. It was doable, but not without a little pain. Anything they were given either by the school itself, or private scholarships were viewed with great appreciation and gratitude. Nobody had to give us anything, but we were thrilled when they did. </p>
<p>Others, however, may think a little differently on what they think others owe them. You can’t control that so I wouldn’t let it worry you. And now that my kids have graduated we donate to the very generous school that not only helped them through a little financially, but gave them four wonderful years. Hopefully, that money goes to others who will appreciate it, but if not, I hope they learn to.</p>
