[quote=Anonymous]I think it's totally fine to say -- the boys will be on their own for lunches, so please just make sure they have some spending money for that -- if your kids are typical MC or UMC kids that go out to chipotle and stuff regularly.  Or to say something like -- I'm planning on letting the boys just go out to dinner for a few nights on their own -- and any reasonable parent will understand that their son is expected to pick up the cost of that meal on their own.

When we hosted teen boys, I did buy a bunch of stuff at costco -- but I found the boys also just went out and bought food on their own to supplement.  Like they went by the burrito place or the ice cream place pretty much every afternoon.  Because that's what they do after school anyway.  I probably didn't buy enough soda for their taste, so I think they were picking up stuff like energy drinks and soda on their own.  But I did stuff like pasta with meat sauce, pizza, those chicken flautas from costco, maybe we did hamburgers or hotdogs one night, etc.  I wasn't feeding them steak.  [/quote]
