[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.

I withdrew the offer yesterday afternoon and another boy was offered the same deal. He and his parents accepted it immediately.

The first boy's mom sent me (and one of my BILs who'd been on the email thread) a long rambling email calling us "assholes" and then concluded by asking if he could actually take the deal. We said no.

Then she defriended me on FB. lol.[/quote]

You are a pretty horrible person OP.  I’m sure your son and cousins invited this friend without any mention or expectation of money.  You butting in (where truly this isn’t your business) for some nominal, negligible amount our of principle does make you look like an asshole.  No matter how you spin it.  In addition to alienating this woman you probably ruined your son’s friendship with the other kid.  They must have been close for your son to have invited him.  I hope you don’t get too lonely on your high horse.  And I hope it was worth it.

I’d be willing to bet if the rental terms would have been disclosed at the beginning the original family would have had no issue paying.  [/quote]

It's not on OP to make the decision on her own. 3 brothers own the house and they don't know this random kid. You neglect to mention that the BIL's agreed to this stipulation, not just OP. It's a family decision and multiple parties need to be kept happy. [/quote]
