[quote=Anonymous]Another step-mom here. You have zero control over what the ex-wife does, and all things considered, this is not a horrific thing. I also understand your frustration, but try to put it in perspective. I completely agree she needs to be clear on budget. And she was. Discretionary spending is very different from a four-year commitment to pay for college. She needed to know her ability to pay the increasing costs of her share of tuition of the four years. But pocket money is different. She can withhold, lower, or increase that at any time. I think this is up to your step son to figure out and budget/work/save accordingly. And yes, I think you are awesome for helping your stepson through college. I don't mean to diminish that kindness at all. It's just that in your shoes, I wouldn't give much energy to the spending money issue. [/quote]
