We are off on hols tomorrow, 2 weeks in the sun fully paid for by DH and I for us, CD 20yrs, DD 18yrs and DD's boyfriend who's 18 and works fulltime. My DS is at uni and DD at college but both have good part-time jobs and earn decent money.
Just interested in opinions really... if you were I, would you be paying for meals out/on the ferry/at the drive thru on the journey for your 'big kids' who are still in education? I've told them due to the holiday costing us so much expecting a contribution to food when we get there (going self catering) and any meals out etc will be their expense, Inc breakfast on the ferry. It goes without saying DDs boyfriend is very grateful for the free holiday and fully expects to pay for himself along the way. But am I being tight 're my own kids? This is no issue this end, I'm just interested in whether I being a bit tight given they're in education.
