I agree with you in theory, but practically we saw that we ended up with more money once we started giving 20% consistently. So now we stick with that. When we paid tuition with maaser, we ended up with less at the end of the day. So we do what works Smile

I'm confused. You give 20% maaser but no tuition? How does that even make sense? If you mean that you get a tuition break you could still use your maaser money to support the school. It's about doing the right thing, you should really ask a rabbi.

Huh? Who said we're not paying tuition? We just don't use maaser money for it.
