a car is a luxury not a right - and it is something a child should earn, not just have handed to them, nor should a parent be forced to pay for. you can't expect your stbx to foot the bill for everything - college should be split, and the child should be encouraged to do well in school to earn scholarships. You should open up college funds for the children and have a set amount each parent contributes per month.you can require your stbx to cover the children under his health insurance and split the cost of anything not covered.
don't turn your ex into a walking wallet for the kids' future, their upbringing is 1/2 your responsibility.
I'm a family law attorney
