Search Results: signs he wants you to back off

My daughter is 19 and wants to go on a trip with her friend Ashlynn to Universal Orlando for her Christmas present. My daughter is currently not working but she’s taking two classes at community college. Her friend, Ashlynn, works 2 days a week at a retirement home for 6 hours. We live in Pittsburgh, PA. I already paid for a trip to Niagara Falls for her and her 3 friends in January. I paid for the hotel room for all of them and waterpark passes. I also had to give my daughter spending money on top f it. It was probably around $700 USD. This trip to Universal Orlando is too expensive for Ashlynn to pay upfront. Her parents also said they won’t help her pay since they have gifs to buy for other people. It is $687.45 per person for hotel and flight. For both of them that is $1,374.90. They want to go from December 14th-19th. I told Ashlynn she needs to bring her own spending money and I have to give my daughter spending money on top of that. The park tickets are around $200 each as well. I am willing to pay for the whole trip, that’s no problem. The problem is Ashlynn has been known to back out on trips. I can’t get my money back for this trip. Before I book it, I want to make sure she is 100% able to go. She said she would pay back if she doesn’t go, but I don’t believe that. I want her to sign a contract to give me $50 every month until it’s paid off. So she is locked into going. Do you think that’s too harsh? My daughter thinks it’s rude because I said I would pay for it all (which I will, I just don’t want Ashlynn to back out and not pay me the money back.) I also told my daughter if Ashlynn backs out, she is going to have no Christmas gifts because this is her gift.
