[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I see so many harping on the mom and stepdad but the bio dad gets a free pass. How about the SD and his ex made years worth of financially plans and saved for the kids they shared and now he does not have the funds to also pay for the stepdaughter, how is that unfair. That does not mean he may not contribute something, living expenses, books, etc. but to expect that he has to foot the tuition is over the top. 
As for other lifestyle things, those kids also have a rich mom.[/quote]

We don't even know that he doesn't have the money to pay for OP's daughter.  OP hasn't even talked to him about it, because their marriage is so great that they don't treat each other kids as family or talk about their kids' education or anything.  OP has saved peanuts for college, despite having had her living expenses paid for for the past six years.  But her daughter will be treated as having access to her mom's husband's assets, so she won't get any financial aid.  We don't know that the daughter expects him to pay all of her tuition -- she's resentful that her mom is riding the gravy train because she married a guy with more money, and mom has no sympathy for her daughter who is apparently not considered family by the man who has been married to her mom for a third of her life.
