$0.

These are her CHOICE. She needs to budget accordingly. She's taking Uber because you're paying for it and not making HER decide whether it's worth the money rather than the time taking the bus.

I gave mine a metro card with $10. She's gotten a ride to the metro a few times or taken a car to the metro (since we have a no driving in DC rule). She's also aware of the buses and bike (although she's scared to ride the bike).

Did you give her an expectation during matching that you would pay for this if you don't offer her occasional car use? Then, you need to set a limit.
Didn't mention it at all but told her she would have to figure it out? Definitely $0. Although if you've been paying for it already, you've set a bad precedent and can't do this.

Your AP sounds like she's totally taking advantage of you. Offer her some metro money loaded on her card every month but put your foot down about Uber. Expecting you to pay for daily Uber trips in her free time is ridiculous.[/quote]
