And what are his finances like that he's so dependent on the contributions of a single mother?

Most men would take care of the household expenses and let her pay down her debt/child's tuition and view her money as 'piddly' play type money.

What's HIS deal?

Wow, you sound right out of the 1950s.

Call it whatever. 1950's...Chivalry...Gender roles...Whatever.

I will admit to being a bit old fashioned, but men make more than woman for a reason.

No decent, self-respecting man would want a SINGLE MOTHER to sacrifice her child's education so that she can have more money coming into his household. He needs to step up and be a man. A provider. A protector.

What is the reason men make more than women?

Did you read the posts at all? His kids go to public and it will likely cause friction that her daughter is treated like a special snowflake. She is also spending all this money when she has significant debt.

And in this area, many women make more than their husbands. Geez.

Yeah, but she's not one of them.

It's not her problem nor her daughter's that his children go to private school. Where do you draw the line? Does she not get anything for Christmas because his children may feel some type of way? He is not that child's father, and he's not paying for part of the tuition--the actual father is. So OP needs to STFU.

I meant that his children go to *public* school

NP here but you are definitely a nut. I'm assuming you're the one that's been posting the whole time about how a woman's money is her own and she doesn't need to contribute to the family.
