[quote=Anonymous]Im stunned at the positivity on this thread.  These are lucky kids to have so many sane, rational adults concerned for them.  Some kids don't even have one decent parent and these kids have four! 
Having said that, these are the only issues I can think of:
by paying for the school, will the parents feel that you get more say in how the kid does academically (thinking more in middle or high school), if the kid flunks out but you all paid the 35k in tuition, is that going to be very awkward?
second, if it turns out that the kid really needs to be in a different school (but also private/expensive) due to learning issues etc...would you all also pay for that.  Would kids parents feel forced to keep kid in a school that isn't the right fit just so you all pay tuition?
I know these are far fetched but spend some time on the school forums, and holy cow, the obsession to find the perfect school is astounding!  But again, kudos to you and your co parents for even thinking of this. Agree with a PP that maybe its best to broach this just from your husband to his ex only to get a feel for the reaction.
