[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Say three families rent a house together for a vacation.

This year one family said they couldn't go.  So the other two split the cost to pay for the reservation.  Then the third family changed their mind and decided to join.  So they paid their share to the families that already paid for the house.

The vacation is still two weeks away.  Now one of the families had an emergency.  Their DC broke an arm and they can't go to the beach.

Is it fair to ask the other families for a refund?  Given it's most likely they will be using their room.

God no! that is tacky and classless - especially because they're all friends!

That said, what the heck kind of reason is that for canceling a family beach vacation? A broken arm is no bid deal, so this smells like a bogus reason to me. I think that the family with the "broken armed kid" just wants out of the vacation...maybe they can't afford it.  but please don't try to say that its because your kid broke their arm - especially because the break is NOW, and the vacation is two weeks away.
