@kay_wfhm1: My sister asked one question… and now I’m second-guessing everything. 😂 If your teenager brings a friend on vacation, should they bring spending money for extras? #BrainlyPartner #ParentTok #VacationDrama #TeenParents #RageBait
I am not going to ask a guest to pay. However, as a guest, I am sending money with my kid.

When you invite your kids friends, you pay. That’s proper etiquette

When my family would take friends with us we paid for everything. I am taking my kids friend to Mexico with us next week. The only thing I asked is for them to bring money for souvenirs.

Any meals or family activities or treats that you’d pay for your kids, you pay for their friends as well. They should bring spending money as well for any souvenirs or activities that the teenagers would want to do on their own. Just treat them like you would your own kids, as though they’re part of your family.

My biggest pet peeve !!!! I always send money with my kids and I also offer money to their parents. HOWEVER If I invite a child on vacation with us I NEVER expect them to pay for ANYTHING . If I can’t afford an extra kid I just don’t take one .

Teens should bring their own spending money for souvenirs or extras. But food, lodging and activities, I’d pay for. If I’m paying for it for my kids, then I’m paying for their friend as our guest.

We invite my daughters friend on vacation, we don’t expect her to pay for anything. We invite…we pay. Only thing she should spend her money on it souvenirs.

I always brought spending money for souvenirs but it was an unspoken rule that the parent paid for lodging, food, activites and i was taught to be grateful, order something cheap and have fun.

If we invite, we cover. If my kids are playing mini golf, getting ice cream and a tshirt, so is the friend. It’s our treat. I just tell them they can bring spending money, but it’s not necessary.

I △⃒⃘lways say "bring spending money" but I pay for events like mini golf but no souvenirs. If my teens go get ice cream on their own, I expect them to pay but send money in case they don't

The parents should give them spending money
with no coaxing from you. Do not bring it up.

We take friends, we pay. They take mine, they pay. But we do offer.

Melissa Murray :
I always say to bring spending money, but I’m not gonna make them pay for anything my kids aren’t also paying for. So like if the teenagers wanna go get Taco Bell they’re paying if we’re eating dinner at a Mexican restaurant I’m paying. If we’re going golfing because the little kids want to go, but I’m paying if the teenagers wanna go hang out by their selves and their activity is mini golf and they’re gonna be paying for it. Hopefully that makes sense.

If they have already been invited let it be. Next time expectations should be set with parents before asking kid.

If we invite them, we pay for everything except things they choose to buy like souvenirs unless I’m buying them for my kids also….then I buy them.

When I went on vacation with my best friend at 16 I believe I gave her mom some money for groceries if I remember correctly! I don’t know what’s normal. 🤷🏼♀️
