[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interesting.

I am 42 with DH and two kids, 10 and 5.

We cover all expenses of my parents and inlaws when they occasionally vacation with us.

When my kids are self-supporting adults[b] i hope they want to see us enough that they will say yes and even initiate vacations together and pay their way. [/b]We would, of course, help pay if they want to go on a vacation together and $ is the only reason they are not able to do so, but I would feel so bad if they do not want to vacation with us unless we pay...

Naive?[/quote]

This is highly unlikely to happen. Sorry. [/quote]

I don't think it's naive or even unlikely that they would do this, if they're visiting your home on a holiday that's normally for travel.  But if you're going to place demands on where they go and what they do and the timing of it, you have to understand that makes it less appealing or else completely impossible.  Especially if what you want to do is expensive or involves a lot of travel hassle or is really cheap to the point of being yucky.  [/quote]
