[quote=Anonymous]You sound very generous and reasonable and your kids are lucky to have you. I don't have experience from the parents perspective, but something similar happened in my family. My parents divorced when I was young and had agree to split college 50/50, but my father had much more money than my mother. When it was time for me to apply to colleges, my dad told my mom he would pay everything, I think she paid room and board. My sister ended up getting into an expensive private college and I know it was a huge relief to my mom to not have to foot half the bill. We knew our mom worked hard but didn't earn a ton, so we were (and are) incredibly grateful to our dad for stepping up when he was able instead of making our mom stick to the agreement. [/quote]
