[quote=Anonymous]I was invited along on a few friends' family trips as a kid (my parents were immigrants of modest origin, plus we were a big family and there truly would have been no room on ours!) We have done for all 4 of our kids and they have been on similar trips with their friends. We've done everything from just the friend to inviting extra families if we rent house that already have more than enough bedrooms. We do go to a pretty amazing place overseas most New Years and when we let 'kids' invite their boy friends/girlfriends we do NOT pay for their plane tickets but don't charge for rooms, etc. Love my kids and their friends. In all the years there was only one bad guest (15yo) - and he was such a bad guest it was almost comical. (Examples - he was always saying ohhh - I don't have change can you buy me this whatever store after store until I finally said break the damn $20 kid. Also - his parents had given him money to bring us out to dinner one of the nights and honestly - we never would have accepted but then he insisted on getting my kids ice cream after putt putt and paid for single scoop for each and got elaborate sundae for himself....oh and hid on the last morning when we were rushing around doing the packing and minimal beach house clean up.)
