[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lord god, you are a cheapskate if you really think you should save $2.50 an hour by divvying it up per kid.  Just split it.  [/quote]

Maybe I am a cheapskate? I'm a single mom raising two kids on a GS-9 salary. Brother makes over 300K. I didn't come here for your judgement. I came to get a response of what would be generally accepted. Maybe you should step off your high horse and realize that not everyone is in as stable a situation as you. We're also splitting food and tip. So yeah, paying per kid would save me probably close to $30-40 which is a lot for someone like me.[/quote]

I have three kids and make over $300k. I don’t think it makes me a cheapskate to not offer to pick up the entire tab in a situation like this. He probably has more expenses than you since he has more kids. This year has been brutal on many people who are paying more for private, pods, etc than normal. His income is irrelevant without knowing his expenses [/quote]

Are you serious??? [/quote]
