[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Camp = 1 month take home pay = TOO MUCH unless this was something that was planned for (i.e., sinking fund/saved for).

If my wife came to me last minute and wanted me to pay for this I think my initial reaction would be a hard no.

When I was a kid I did a few 4H camps and scouting that were all less than a week. I also spend a week each summer at my grandparents house helping granddad around the farm. My kids get sent to their grandparents house as "summer camp" where they get to learn how to feed animals and cut grass.

Dude, I'm there with you on this being a ridiculous price. If, however, it was a small fraction of cash I already had on hand my wife might be able to talk me into it... but I'd prefer to see it being something my kid really wanted to do also.

[b]Also, I my wife was a stay-at-home and there are no other kids I'd be wondering what she is doing with her time while the kid is gone. Maybe she is just looking to spend more time with her affair partner this summer without the kid around[/b]... [/quote]

Unrelated to OP but I just wanted to point out that this paragraph is utterly bonkers. [/quote]
