Audrey,

My parents kept claiming me on their taxes too until I got married. Even after I had left and they didn't help me with college expenses at all. Them claiming me also cut my financial aid because I was required to report their income and they dragged their feet sending the information, so my financial aid application was always late. That cost me about $3000 per year right there.

Don't let them hold you back. Unsupportive parents may make it harder to get where you want to be, but if you keep trying you'll make it anyway.
