Child support and college expenses

Quick question. I need some opinions on this.

I recently paid off my exwife. Paid her the last 10 months of child support in full. The only things I'm still obligated for are health care, 1/2 of non covered medical expenses and 1/2 of extra curricular activities until she graduates from high school.

My daughter is 17 and school starts next week. She has signed up for 2 dual enrollment classes at the local college (she gets h.s. and college credits). She's a senior in high school. The ex sent a receipt and asked for my 1/2 of the tuition.

I'm really on the fence as to whether this would be considered "extra curricular". Don't get me wrong, I want to help my daughter but finances are tight and the ex hasn't lifted one finger to help our son in college. NOT ONE PENNY. He's been thru 2 years at the community college and is now transferring to a 4 year college. She hasn't paid for one thing, contributed nothing. And now I'm being asked to pay for tuition for my daughter.

Should I just let this go since it can only happen for 2 semesters and the amount isn't going to kill me? I really don't want to fight with her about this but I'm worried about just paying it and suddenly being expected to pay for other expenses.

Ugh, hate this stuff.
