    Ok, now I am looking closer at this persons profile pic, and I think that the above posters are right. I think SHE is the seventeen year old. Anyone else notice that the origional poster has not replied to this either?

    Hi, does anyone know the rules when it comes to minors staying in motel rooms? My daughter and her boyfriend want to go visit her father in Florida, and he does not have room for them to stay. They are both seventeen years old. If I pay for the motel room with my credit card, would they be able to check-in and stay on their own?

    Wow, you are really considering this "grandma"

    I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought the one asking was the child. Why would a mother put a picture of those two like that for her profile pic? Geez.

    I doubt very much if anyone even asks about age when it comes to renting a room at a motel. It's all about money. If there is damage to the room, it gets charged to the credit card. To be sure, about motel policy, you will have to confirm with the motel.

    Advocating that 2 17yr olds stay in a motel room alone .. and paying for it ... Is another topic entirely.

    Having an avatar photo like that of your daughter and her boyfriend .. yet another! WTF are you thinking?

    My grandparents just rolled over in their graves because I read this.

    And no, even if you pay for her, you would have to show up there and sign for the room, in my experience you can't pay for a room over the phone just reserve it until you get there. While I wouldn't do this for my child personally, her dad can rent the room and they can pay in cash (but if he's the one who wants her to visit why isn't he paying?).

    Not so. You can reserve a room, for someone else. I do it for business all the time. The employees who stay in motels when they travel for work, sign the form, but it's MY credit card. Authorizations for credit card purchases can be done over the internet .. no signatures are even required. I do it all the time in our business.

    Dear Posters,

    I wanted to give you a brief explanation for locking this thread. This post has begun to go off topic and is attacking the original poster's judgement. If you will refer to the guidelines:

Violations of this rule are taken very seriously and may result in being banned without warning! If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all.

    17) Please stay on-topic, and help us make our forums a "No Hijacking" zone. Users come to MyFitnessPal for support and encouragement.
