200$ for 4 days at 3 meals per day is 16.60 per meal. You can’t even eat at fast food for that. Even at a cheaper restaurant you are going to spend 25-30$ for a meal. 50$ per day is not going to buy food , snacks or incidentals, let alone any souvenirs, or emergency money if needed. Just saying.

My daughter now 21 went to Nashville when 16 for a 3 day BETA trip. She was given 200 cash and had my card if needed. Not only was she money smart and found reasonable places to eat and her grp of friends bought pizza and shared costs. She even bought a cpl small gifts and didn’t use my card and brought back change!!! Raise them to respect money and problem solved! And now her and her husband at 21 are in process of buying first home because they work hard and respect money.

200 isn't much really especially if your at a destination with over priced food. Geez a taco bell lunch is almost 20 bucks.

With teenagers, you need to be exact in the words you use. "No credit card use. You have 200 cash to use this weekend. Make it last. You know what? give me the credit card. I don't trust that you won't use it"

There is no way you need $100 a day but I would say $200 is on the low end. $200-$400 is about right I mean if you want her to have fun buy souvenirs and go to places I mean things aren’t cheap anymore.. $200 is literally nothing anymore you’re saying $200 is $1000 or something lmao

No parents have lost their mind .A friend of mine gave her daughter her credit card and 2 weeks later she went to see her dad in a different state came back with 16 thousand dollars on the card . Her claim dad is pretty poor & she thought she had to take care of him ,needless to say mom paid most even though she lives in an low Sr.housing complex & daughter is a professional. I would never give my card to anybody.

Evidently you didn’t explain yourselves about the money.200.00 for 4 days isn’t allow for food and especially if she like to buy herself something.
