[quote=Anonymous]It looks like you'll be outvoted, right? All you can do is provide guidance, make suggestions. BTW, I understand your arguments. What guidance counselors, and others, do suggest is that your DH provide realistic financial guidelines now to ex and DD. For example, "we'll pay $25,000 per year for college. But you must maintain a 2.5 or whatever college GPA" or whatever parameters you decide. At the very least, have her apply to High Point or wherever, and several state schools where she'll be accepted and maybe an inexpensive OOS state school. See where she gets accepted and tell her then you'll consider all the total cost if attendance issues and decide later. I wouldn't let her assume that money is not a factor. [/quote]
