[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have a beach house and teens. Absolutely would never request money from teens or families. I cover meals. They should all bring some spending money. If they are hanging out, walking around, they can buy ice cream or a slice of pizza.[/quote]

People have different financial situations even if they have a beach house, which may be rented, inherited, belonging to another family member etc. Your circumstances don’t apply universally to everyone.

OP can make whatever decision fits her budget, including asking for money, and the other parents are free to decline.

Another option is to eat all meals outside if she doesn’t feel like exiling for 7 extra teens, and the other teens should pay for their kids eating out.

If she decides to put in the effort for cooking, doing groceries, etc, it’s fine to ask for the reimbursements. I don’t understand why some are so against it.

Even if the other parents think OP is tacky, great, nobody cares. Invite the teens at your house for a week over the summer with all expenses paid if you feel like it.[/quote]
