[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nobody is saying she is entitled to the stepdads money.[b] People are saying they her mother, OP, screwed her up and needs to focus all her energies on how  to fix that instead of blaming her daughter for lashing out. [/b]And in pursuing those solutions, yes, she should also explore what her husband thinks. If he is a decent guy who loves his wife he will find a way to help here. [/quote]

This. And the OP doesn't seem to get how college financing works.  Her DD qualifies for very little in loans on her own. So it's the $30k saved so far + about $27k over 4 years.  That won't pay for any 4-year college.  What can OP do to cash flow college payments? What loans is she willing to take to cover it the gap? What loans/cash flow is her bio dad willing to step up for? What can the DD reasonably earn from summer jobs?  That is the conversation that needs to happen plus an apology from OP to DD to recognize that her life choices have put DD in a very difficult place.[/quote]
