Invited to the Pool

Many people around here belong to swim or lake clubs. We also belong to one of these. Our membership allows us to bring in 8 guests free; after that, the guest must pay.

We always pay for our guests when we invite them. We don't ask our friends or our kids' friends to pay their own way in.

My children have recently been invited with friends to swim at other swim clubs where the friends are members. But my kids have been expected to bring enough money for their admission. This can get expensive--depending on the swim club, it's between $4 and $10 (highest prices on weekends).

What do you think? If you invite a guest, do you pay for their admission, or do you expect them to pay their own?
