Should my daugher (20 years) contribute to our holiday?

My daughter is at home after having a spell away at university. She has during the time away run up some debt in the form of a bank overdraft but she has just started working full time and is earning quite good money, so is getting this debt down. She doesnt pay any board at the moment. Even though I did pay it when I was still at home when I was her age.

The question is - we tend to go skiing as a family each winter and this year she wanted to go with us as usual - so booked her a place. Would other mums ask for a contribution towards the holiday or expenses in resort - What is your opinion, am I storing up problems letting her go 'scott free' all the time.

Thanks

No, I wouldn't suggest asking her to pay. Hopefully by setting such a generous example she'll pay for you to go on holiday with her (and her family?) in the future.
