[QUOTE="Becca Lawson, post: 630380, member: 18159"] My frustration is that it's been going on for over a year. Between us we have 5 children. The other children are going without because of all the medical bills. She stated that she cannot get a student loan for anything but tuition. She needs an additional $2,000 for room and board. Grades are not there, in my opinion she needs to stay at local college where she can commute. I'm trying to be patient but when my 4.0 student who never ask me for anything, ask to borrow something and my husband responded with "ya don't always get what ya want" after sending her to a $30,000 school in NY Her freshmen year, kinda irked me. We've been to counseling. He refused to go back because the counselor told him things he didn't want to hear. I continue to go. I have 4 boys who, knock on wood, never have given us any trouble. They don't even back talk. It's hard because they are starting to resent the lopsided nature of the finances in our home. They see her being rewarded for bad behavior. [/QUOTE]
