[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do adult need their parents to pay for them if they want to go?[/quote]

If parents have money and want their adult children to join for exotic vacations, adult children without means would either accept freebie to make parents happy or decline because they can't afford it. Its fine either way.[/quote]

We have one in college and one recently out of college.  No SO yet (but will include them and pay for them once there are ones).  We have taken a nice European vacation each summer since the oldest graduated college.  No way would they spend on the trip like we do, as they are just starting out after college---travel is one of our vices and we spend nicely on it.   So if we want them to come we pay.  We are wealthy so it seems ridiculous to ask our kids (and any future SOs) to pay to vacation with us or to pay to come visit us. We have been paying and will continue to pay even when there are spouses and grandkids.  Same for when they come to visit us--we pay airfare and hotel if needed (we live in a small condo, so not space if everyone is "home").   Never any strings attached to it either---simply, we are doing this, would you like to join us/does it work with your schedule. [/quote]
