Let’s not forget that Ioan didn’t want to send her to that school and didn’t agree to it. Alice wanted it to the point of saying she would pay for it. But she has instead chosen to pay for eBay tat, an overpriced apartment and a nanny she doesn’t need.I see her minions are pushing pretty intensively the narrative that Ioan's lawyer expenses should have gone into keeping Ella (who already refused to see him before she even entered that school) in the super expensive school and the kids in the house for stability.
Here a question to the minions: Why not the same energy for Alice pulling Elsie out of her long term school? It's much much bigger in terms of causing instability than what Ioan was forced to do. And if the housing issue was about stability would you have accepted it if Ioan moves back in and Alice out and she uses the payout to rent a tiny apartment like Ioan does atm)? (the house was in large HIS seperate property). It's about the kids, right? RIGHT? So it shouldn't matter which parent benefits?
The truth is nothing is this is about the kids. It's all about Alice. The kids are just used to gain the moral high ground by coercing them into being a package deal. And anyone who supports this should duck off.
As an aside: STOP pretending that everything a parent earns should be spend on what the kids want. If Ioan feels 400k are worth it for his PROTECTION and for re-establishing a RELATIONSHIP to his kids (he wouldnt have one if he was paying for everything either, as mentioned Ella was refusing to see him already back then) he is within his rights to do that. If anything the blame is here entirely on Alice for forcing Ioan into this situation. The kids are not entitled to luxury, they are entitled to a roof over their head, food, education and the occasional perk - beyond that is bonus.
We are about to go into another round of Ioan taking the blame for Alice’s vindictive decisions that put her children‘s security and education at risk so that she can badmouth him to 3-4 misfits.
