[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These are 17 year olds with cars, possibly part time jobs, soon to be living independently? Your son and his friends should be coordinating their own meals that fit within their budgets, whether it’s getting groceries and cooking or eating some meals out. Maybe you guys can host dinner the first and last nights, but expecting you to plan/pay for meals for 7 kids for a week is ridiculous. I don’t know where most of these posters are coming from. I grew up in a very wealthy area where kids frequently hosted trips at their beach or ski cabins. By age 17, there would be zero expectation of the parents providing food for a large group trip like this. [/quote] Agreed. It’s your house but your nearly-adult son is really the “host” here so he should be communicating with his friends about a plan for food whether that entails pooling funds for a massive grocery run or going out.[/quote]
