My PIL's have booked a house for BIL/SIL and their two children to stay in over Xmas week as none of us have enough room to accommodate them.
PIL's don't think they will pay for it, which I think is bad enough, but now other BIL's who live in UK have got wind of this and have asked us all to contribute money towards the cost of the house so that PIL's aren't footing the bill.
My opinion is that BIL and his family are grown ups. It's their choice to come back and they should be footing the bill.
We payed a lot of money to go over to them last year for their wedding and no one contributed to our costs.
We also are not in the best position to be helping them out as we paid out for our own wedding this year and my job is very much on rocky ground at the moment.
This sort of thing drives me up the wall an makes me want to call MIL and explain what all her sons are thinking of doing.
It doesn't feel like it should have been my business at all, but they made it my business when it will affect me financially.
BIL and his family are perfectly well off too, much more than we are, so I feel very annoyed by being asked.
