Step back a little. What led to this break-down in communication. Is this a little tiff, or is this the straw breaking the camel's back?

None of it matters.  Having your parents pay for college is a luxury, not a right.

I think it varies on the school but eventually he will have to pay or get kicked out.[/quote]

Basic respect and courtesy go a very long way. If parents are unhappy with paying tuition, the least they can do is warn their child. So, yes, it matters.

You write [b]$10,000 checks [/b]for adults you don't talk even to?[/quote]

Try $40K for privates that run $80K a year.[/quote]

Very, very few people pay sticker price.  Both my kids got 1/2 off tuition at private LACs. I believe my D said she knew of one classmate that paid full sticker price in her four years of undergrad.[/quote]

Y[b]ou believe your daughter that people are honest about money when they talk about it?

And half off a private LAC still means a bigger check than $10k.  I just wrote a check for more than that and my kid is in an OOS flagship with a substantial amount of merit aid.[/quote][/b]

We're full pay.  Everyone that I know (with whom this matter has been discussed) is full pay.  This is the donut hole dilemma of the MC and UMC.[/quote]

The data is easily available. Just to use a school at random, Kenyon's website says 45% of the students receive some form of assistance. That's more than half the college students paying full freight. I imagine most LACs are like this. [/quote]
