[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]College is between the child and the parent. A parent is not obligated to pay for college.[/quote] Except that they are. Do you know nothing of FAFSA?[/quote] I do. And there is a box to check if you are independent. 18 is an adult and legally a parent is no longer any financial obligation to a child. If the parent and child have a relationship, it is not uncommon for a parent to contribute to college, but they are not legally obligated to. Unlike child support, there will be no wage garnishment for failure to pay.[/quote] Why don't you do some more research on how the laws changed in 1992. No one under 24 can declare themselves independent for the purposes of paying for college. Many states mandate a plan to pay for college in the divorce decree.[/quote]
