DD is going for a meal out with 3 friends for birthday. She’ll be 13.
What’s the etiquette for who pays? This is their first meal out without adults. If it were adults going for a birthday meal, we would expect to pay for ourselves, but is it different at 13?
I had been thinking that we would pay for the meal, give them a budget each ie enough for drink, main, dessert, tip then anything else they pay themselves?
All previous parties we have paid for everything due to the format. This is new territory! But I need to let the parents know as don’t want anyone worrying about money/how to pay.
