[quote=Anonymous]This is a tough one. I’d say leave the ex’s spouse out of it, but if that spouse previously made a ton of money and has savings to cover more opportunities for this older child, then (s)he is free to give the child whatever (s)he wants. You are not required to split the cost of anything at this point, especially at the expense of your other children. I guess for me it would depend on how necessary this program is. If just a “nice to do” thing, then it’s not that much different than a divorced parent offering to say, provide a downpayment on a house. No one would expect a parent to require the ex to go halfsies on something like that. But on the other hand, if this is something that may reduce the need to financial assistance down the road, it may be worth it. But ex needs to understand that your spouse has more than one child, unlike him/her and you have to consider the needs of all of them.[/quote]
