[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP, it IS horrible for your husband to withhold paying for the education of the children he fathered and to try to control them and his ex wife with the money for it, which is sounds like he can far better afford than she. That is not parental alienation. It sounds like an accurate description of reality. Don’t expect much of a relationship with the grandchildren. If he is not paying for these kids therapy 100% he is a total sh*theel.[/quote]

Asking for minimal contact for paying for college is not unreasonable.  Why should he pay for therapy?  You cannot fix alienation.  The mother is the sh#theel for treating him as she did.  My husband told the kids if he helped with college he wanted to see all the applications, paperwork, including costs, copies of the report cards and twice a month phone calls. They were very secretive and got a full ride so they wanted him to send money/cash to their mom and wouldn't provide what the money was for.   No parent pays for college with zero expectations.  We will not pay for our kids college if there is no relationship or bad grades.  Our kids are preteens and they know this.  It goes for activities and any extra's as well. You don't reward bad behavior.  If they want to be adults, let them get a job and pay for their own college.[/quote]
