1Opinion of the Court

Goolsby, Judge:

The appellant Anne Nelson appeals from a family court order which reduced the child support obligations of her *128former husband, H. Shelby Merritt, and which denied her attorney’s fees. We affirm in part and reverse in part.

Nelson and Merritt were divorced on August 30,1977. The divorce decree incorporated a prior agreement entered into by the parties. Among other things, the agreement provided that Merritt would pay Four Hundred Dollars ($400) a month for the support of two minor children and would pay the school tuition for each child at “an appropriate private institution”…
