I've a very small family. Six including myself. All my life I've had Thanksgiving dinner at my parents house...helping along with my sister, my mom cook.

This year, my father havin' passed; we're getting together at my house since my mom has been staying with me.

I've invited my neighbor..

.And please don't take this crooked...I'm happy to feed them all.

I can see your side...perhaps havin more of a full table....so I'd say who evers old enough to.

You know this thanksgiving will actually be the first one where I've actually cooked something up to bring there. And also it's gonna be only for me lol. The cabins we stay in don't have a big enough kitchen for 2 cooks but this time we have an extra cabin. (:

Some younger folks don’t know.
Their parents provided through their twenties into their thirties.
Provide a list via email or text what side dishes you want people to bring and let them sign up for it.
Or assign.
It doesn’t have to be confrontational.

We’ve hosted the last few years so did the main dishes. I started bringing/making desserts when I was a teenager though.

I can honestly say we never have to worry about free loaders. People in my family love to cook and eat lmao

I'd say the age of legal adulthood, 21, is the age at which someone can be expected to prepare a dish for Thanksgiving. Can be simple - roasted sweet potatoes or a simple kind of pie in a store bought crust.

That’s a fascinating question. I only ever went to thanksgiving when I was a kid so I never had to worry about it.

I’d say as soon as you’re no longer live with mom and dad because if you’re living with mom and dad, then when you go to someone’s place for dinner, you’re going to bring something from your entire family to the dinner

On your own and 21 except I have freeloaded later since no one in my young family cooked that well.

Old enough to vote, old enough to remember to bring something...even if it's just a hostess gift.

I have no clue about Thanksgiving practices. We don't celebrate that here. 😅

I always bring an extra freeloader so idk how this could possibly be misconstrued by anyone.. 🤔

I think 20 is an appropriate age to start bringing a dish to contribute to the festivities.

Old enough to be invited over and have ability

I would say 18 lol.

Fetus

Old enough to drive over for dinner old enough to bring something.

My age + 1 😯

Lmaooo I think if you make money you can make a dish. Every other able bodied person can help cook or clean.

My family you were told. you bring this you bring that...age had nothing to do with it

🙄

You're supposed to bring something?

Whatever age is yours and not mine

I don't even bring myself.

Somewhere in 20's

@itsok

Ok..

I will bring the dancing turkey game ...


Now guess what dance it is...

can i bring my 50 something y/o canadian butt and freeload? i'll bring my own booze though...

If you’re old enough to pick something up at the store.

is a plastic jug of Pepsi OK?

Im a freeloader and proud

21?
