A mom was surprised to receive a $1,600 bill from the parents of her daughter's friend after a vacation in Costa Rica. The bill covered accommodation, food, and excursions. While the mom could afford the cost, she was taken aback by the unexpected expense and the lack of prior discussion about costs.
The author of the post is a mom of a 16YO daughter, and the girl was recently invited by her friend to their vacay in Costa RicaHowever, shortly after the daughter returned from the journey, the mom received a hefty bill from the friend’s parents, she received a huge bill by email from that friend’s parents!– $1,200 for accommodation, $400 for food, and the rest for the excursions.
“In any case, people shouldn’t take anything for granted and always discuss even the smallest details when planning interactions with others. A rule well known to the authors of various instructions – after all, they usually include even points that seem completely obvious and weird to many readers. But almost all of us should actually take this rule into service,” Irina summarizes.
Be that as it may, the commenters are sure that this situation should become an excellent life lesson for this woman in the future. “What was going to be owed 100% should have been discussed before the trip. Remember for next time to make sure before assuming. For now, I’d just pay it,” someone wrote quite wisely. And what do you, our dear readers, think about this case as well?
People in the comments bashed the hosts for this decision, but assumed that the author actually had to discuss this question beforehandAfter many years of working as sports journalist and trivia game author and host in Ukraine I joined Bored Panda as a content creator. I do love writing stories and I sincerely believe - there's no dull plots at all.
