[quote=Anonymous]Yeah, I would just be honest. “Oh that’s too rich for our blood, but we would love to have you over for X, Y and Z!” For the camps, etc., consider picking one thing to do with friends so your kids can be with their friends at least some times. Whether that’s a sports team or a week of tennis camp or whatever. In lieu of $$$ vacations, I offer to include them on fun days trips (hiking at Great Falls, going to a drive-in movie theatre, Luray Cavern tour, etc.). That way your kids get to make summer memories with their friends without blowing your budget.[/quote]
