[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your summary is inaccurate. She said nothing about the truly minor things and for the other ones, they were so minor that if she’s bothered by them, she’s the problem. [/quote]
 
Most of her concerns were related to food, and her son's guest's lack of self awareness regarding how much he was consuming or what other people were ordering. That is minor in the grander scheme of things, but as pertains to the OP's specific vacation, it's really not. Every time the guest eats all of a thing that is supposed to be for multiple people, someone has to go to the store. Every time the guest orders a $30 plate of fish when everyone else is getting a $15 burger, that comes out of the OP's bank account. Those things would annoy me even if he was otherwise the most gracious guest ever, but according to OP, he hasn't been gracious either.

I don't understand why you think the OP is the problem other than that you just want to fight. [/quote]

Because I would have gone to the store and bought lots of cookies and kept some hidden. I wouldn’t have chosen restaurants out of my budget if I had a problem with the dishes or else would have set limits. She allowed this kid to come. She didn’t set ground rules or rules thereafter. That’s on her. She should chalk it up to a lesson learned and not invite others on her trips. Both sides will enjoy themselves that way. [/quote]
