[quote=Anonymous]I am 40. My parents will still foot the bill for things like renting a big beach house and inviting kids + spouses + grandkids. We all drive or manage the airfare on our own, or chip in for groceries/meals out. Occasionally they will also pay for our airfare to visit them. We have 3 kids and it costs $2,500-3,000 to fly to them during the holidays. We can afford to do that every other year or so (airfare is a big expense for a family of 5 and there are other places we want to travel, so we just can’t pay to fly to them all the time). So sometimes they’ll just offer to buy airfare because they want to see us/the grandkids and it’s harder for them to travel to us. I’m sure I’ll get called a mooch, but I don’t care. It works for us and it otherwise wouldn’t be possible for us to take on 100% of the cost/logistics of travel all the time.[/quote]
