Going Abroad Without Mum and Dad

[Summer2010]

Hello, our daughter, who will be 14 next week, is going abroad with her friend and parents. Really unsure of how much money to give our daughter for the 10 days she'll be away. Any suggestions?
Also, how much money do we give the friends parents for lunch each day for our daughter?
Should we also give a token amount to our daughter's friend?
We've paid for the flight, insurance, etc.
Hope you cam help. Really need some advice.
Thank you.

Our son went abroad with a friend and his parents (a cousin). I asked the Dad to keep an account of what he spent and we'd pay him back after the holiday.

I also gave my son some money so he could buy the friend's parents ice cream etc.

It worked well.

Also, I gave the parents a nice present when they returned from the holiday to thank them for taking him.
