"O.k. busboy, time to clear the table!"[/quote]

NP here. I dont know why people are offended. Is it an American thing to be offended when you're actually in the wrong?

I was about to ask if it's an American thing to expect your guests to clear the table.  Because I can't imagine expecting that, and I was thinking perhaps it's because my parents are immigrants.  I can't imagine getting upset over a napkin left on the table.  Good hosts take care of their guests.  [/quote]

No OP is crazy. Don’t loop her in with us.[/quote]

So a guest might be there for one evening or one month.  You are saying that, regardless of length of stay, it is your job as a good host to serve 3 meals and pick up after your guests throughout the course of their stay?  Does this hold true for children, too?

Basically you resign yourself to serve and pick up after your guests as long as they choose to stay in your house....

I actually can't imagine not at least offering to clear my own place but that's just me.
