[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I make about twice what my husband does, and we have shared finances. This isn't an issue of being cheap. We both pay private school tuition, save in a college fund, pay for clothing, phone, internet, gas money, weekly allowance etc. Essentailly, in our house, all the income and all expenses, for both kids, are joint. That's our choice. So it's not even close to a bean counting issue about funds. It's really about modeling budgeting money, and I really would encourage people not to jump to "stepmonster" when we are talking about issues that would be reasonable to think about even if step wasn't an issue. (I only bring it up as an expiation as to why I don't just make my own decision and enforce it)[/quote] It's not reasonable to micromanage meals. It's not reasonable to teach him that his date should pay for everything herself. Lighten up. [/quote] +1[/quote]
