[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What a lot of you are missing is that the mom is willing to pay the EFC the college feels is appropriate based on her income and assets (I assume). Instead the burden of the EFC of the father (which is given our separately) falls to the mother. Schools justify this by saying he has a history of supporting the child. When the alternative is jail, I don't think that's a fair assessment. I don't think these mothers (and hey, sometimes it can be fathers) who live and breathe and spend pretty much all of their money on their children-- to say nothing of the toll of being there for the children, often having to compensate for a parent who does not participate-- should be penalized in this fashion. [/quote] Then her child is ahead of me! Both my parents made a lot of money and refused to help me. I was totally F*cked with the FAFSA. My expected family contribution was 50K over 20 years ago and my parents paid zero towards college. This system is unfair for a lot of people. OP’s child is still ahead of kids like me with well off married parents who contributed nothing to my college education. I’m sorry you’re not going to get special treatment because you’re divorced. [/quote] [b]Get over it and go see a therapist [/b]for your unresolved anger and mommy/daddy issues[/quote] LOL You’re the one trying to say OP’s kid should be able to omit the dads income on FAFSA because they’re divorced. I think you and all the divorced moms need to get over it. You actually had more control in the situation than I did — YOU chose those guys to procreate with! Get over it is my message to you :wink: [/quote]
