[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The answer is no. Your home is not a hotel. Their child’s housing for the  Summer  is not your problem.

I also would never ask this of anyone. Wouldn’t be offended if you declined. [/quote]

Such a typically DCUM nasty hiding behind the keyboard response.  People don't act like this in real life, thank God.[/quote]

Seriously.  I can think of at least a dozen close friends of either mine or my spouse whose kids I'd be happy to host, and who I'd feel comfortable asking to host one of our kids.

There are plenty of reasons why it might not work, and everyone would be OK with that.  But "my home is not a hotel . . . it isn't my problem" would never, ever enter the equation.

Do you people *have* any close friends?[/quote]

Depends on how close a friend. I have college friends that are like sisters and  wouldn’t hesitate to host their kids at that age.

However, would definitely need a heart to heart with the parent and their child about ground rules.

On the other hand a college friend that I wasn’t that close with, I would be fine with saying no (10 weeks is a lot to ask) and would say it’s not open that whole time/you have other visitors planned for the summer.[/quote]
