@annoyingdad: Thanks for your input and opinion. I am always trying to learn more on CC.

I thought the max was 50% of the retired parent, and didn’t have time to check the rule. The two situations (one not described above) that I personally knew about were more contentious and colored my experience/opinion about parents who spend the money to replace their own agreed-upon (but not court-ordered) child support (in a divorce situation) and don’t save it for college and hide it from the other parent and the child, or are untruthful that it MUST be spent (nefarious!).
