I am lucky that all my brothers and sisters own timeshares at Disney and Marriott, so they don't ask to use mine! One sister did stay with us a few years ago, and loved it, but bought Marriott. She bought resale, and there was a significant price difference between Marriott and disney. She kind of regrets that purchase, though!
My kids do come for free. They are grown, and invite themselves along, and I wouldn't have that any other way. I pick the dates, and location, and they decide if they want to come or not. We had bought DVC for ourselves when they were going off to college, because we thought we were going to be vacationing alone..
We have had several of the kids' friends along on our trips. Next week DD's friend, DVC Matt(that's what we call him) is coming down to visit for three days. His parents own DVC too, but his family isn't the invite yourself along type, so, although his mom will be there at the same time, he is coming with us! He is beside himself with joy over the invite, and to "pay" for the trip has recorded for us 3 full CD's of Disney music off the internet, including music from the rides! Don't know WHERE he found all of that, but I think we were more than paid in full for his lodging
