[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Spoiled kids know when a parent is bluffing (read: always). They also know their parents won’t want to face the perceived social embarrassment of their child leaving college and all the side-eyeing that comes with that. The kid knows the college bills will be paid now or over winter break at the absolute latest.[/quote] If the OP is a stepparent she may not be bluffing but in that case I think it's important to be honest with the kid. Let her know that she is cut off and needs to make arrangements for financial aid, etc.. Just refusing to pay the bill is passive aggressive. Of course who knows what the deal is with the bio parents. Does the dad feel the same way? Is the bio mom out of the picture?[/quote]
