[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You need to offer to pay the full trip for both.  They are adults living on their own.  They are independent.  He’s probably one step away from marriage.  Start treating him like that.  [/quote]

Wait, so they’re INDEPENDENT adults who are living on their own, but you’re saying OP should pay for them as if they’re in high school without any financial means? [/quote]

DP: YES.  The OP planned this trip — from where they will go, to when they will go, to what kind of budget will be needed . At no point, apparently, has she included her son, let alone his GF in the decision making process. So, yeah, she should pay for them as her guests — instead of assuming that they have and should use their independent means to pay for her “family” trip.  [/quote]

Disagree. She should tell them both they’re welcome to join while paying their own way. [/quote]

And she should be fine when they say, no, we don’t want to pay for two international flights, plus hotels, plus expenses, and each take 7 days of vacation from work. [/quote]
