[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]College is 30K a year, in-state. Some private unis cost nearly 100K a year. That's total cost of attendance, room, board, tuition, fees, etc.

So... by the time your kid goes to college, it will be an astronomical sum.

Please bear this in mind. Maybe keeping the peace isn't such a bad idea. Did all his family go to college and does he attach great importance to it?[/quote]

I understand that you didn't fight for child support, OP, but why in God's name didn't you insist that your EX pays for your son's college tuition???

I don't care what else you had going in on your life at the time that was emotionally draining, the ONE point of contention that you should NOT have backed down on was college tuition!

Did you even have a divorce attorney, because it sounds like they were highly ineffective when working out your divorce decree.

You needed to buck up at the time, put all of your emotional drama on hold, and FIGHT for your son's future.
I'm not understanding how you let him off the hook completely when it came to ensuring your child's future was locked in??

Too tired to fight for yourself?  Fine.
Too tired to fight for your son?  NEVER.
