As I said, this isn't me charging my stepson, this is his own mother. I told y'all the situation on page one, one thing I didn't know is she's charging him $50 a month for his cell phone, too (even though it's on the family plan, she's charging his sister whose living with me now, the same thing still), so actually his room/board is $350 a month. How much does a family plan for a cell phone cost? Oh, did I tell you guys, the kids each got whole life insurance when they were babies. They've been paying their own premiums on that, too for I don't know how long. I'm waiting for his sister to get a copy of life insurance plan so I can see who the beneficiary is.
Anyway, I finally figured out why his mother is pushing him to go to college full time, you can't take a tax deduction on a healthy person who is 20 if they aren't going to school full time. He turns 20 soon.
The latest from that end of the world is that basically if the boy doesn't enroll in full time college immediately she will start taking away things his possessions and so forth, shit like internet access, cable box in his own room (that he pays for himself), video games (that he bought with his own money), etc.
