[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Alcohol issue aside, I feel differently than PPs about the food. Assuming the AP isn't hosting a big party or going absolutely nuts with the food, I would be ok with providing it. To me it is an aspect of the "part of the family" deal. [/quote]

That's my thought.  I would never ask my relative (living in my home) to purchase food for their guests every time friends came over, especially not a teen/young 20 something.  APs aren't earning very much, and they aren't allowed to supplement their stipend with another job, so no, I wouldn't.  But I also wouldn't have a problem with everyone congregating in my home.  OP obviously wants to control when her AP is allowed to bring anyone over (and it reads like she wants AP to ask every single time, which isn't what family does, imo); there is no reason she has to allow her AP to host gatherings, but she does need to be aware that it means that they will go elsewhere, not that her AP will stay home by herself.[/quote]
