Need to vent.
My wife and her ex-husband agreed to split tuition for their child (my step-son). We pay fall, he pays spring. This was agreed to in front of kid, so he knew which parent was responsible for what and when.
Found out today that the ex did not make tuition payment 3 on the 4 payment plan, and now if account is not paid in full by March 12, the kid will be kicked out of school!
Only reason my wife and I know this info, is due to the fact we have access to his bursars account and I was checking today about his fall scholarship status.
Then when texting with kid about the bands basketball conference tournament trip and spring break today, he said everything was good and classes were going well and was looking forward to being home for a few days in March.
So what to do?
Part of me wants child kicked out so he realizes his dad is a POS, the other part wants to save then day. Wife and I agreed tonight, if told by March 1 we will help, but if told March 7 (when in lands in LA for basketball) or later, we will not be helping.
Wife is pissed, but so far has refused to call/text ex until the kid tells us WTF is going on.
