Your college sounds awesome smile

(sigh)<--(empathy for you)

Co-parenting can be hard (no disrespect to your DH - I'm sure he's a great dad). My DH thinks that post secondary is a waste of time and money. My kids are only 8 and 10 and already I'm stressed about it.

I wish my parents had made college a requirement.

I'd say keep it on the table for sure (without creating too much conflict with your DH). Could you show your DS this thread so he can see how everyone has weighed in? (I couldn't with my DD10 - she'd be embarrassed even with the anonymity).
