[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As for letting parents pay... my dad earns roughly ten times what we do every year. He can pay for all sorts of things we can't, and he likes spending time with us on his terms.  I don't know why it bothers some of you so much to let a parent pay.

We were taken to Europe, but at a place we didn't like, on the kind of trip we don't enjoy, and completely out of budget.  He was happy because we joined him. We were happy because we made him happy and could still afford braces. What could possibly be the problem here?

OP, would you be willing to pay for a trip that fit you all better? Or is there no trip that works for everyone's budget? I wouldn't pay for a Disney cruise, either.

Its asking someone else to pay that is a problem, especially for something you neither need nor really want.

It is tricky with parents, but my main point is that sometimes the parents really like to see their kids and grandkids.  Money shouldn't stand in the way of that.[/quote]
