Can transportation for boys and girls to the Mosdos be paid from maser?

Question:

Hi,

Sorry, also i would like to know if transportation for boys and girls to the Mosdos can be paid from maser?

Answer:

I would assume that it is the same halacha as taking tuition off from maaser. The reason being that this is a requisite in order to teach your child, therefore it isn’t something extra, such as extra tutoring to make your child learn better then the rest of the class, which the money can be taken from maaser. That is because the father is not technically obligated to advance his son to this degree, however getting the child to school is an essential part of sending him/her there, therfore is should not be taken from maaser unless one is very tight.

Best wishes
