One woman found herself in the middle of an issue like this after a friend vacation she and her partner had been planning with another two couples met an unexpected hitch. In one of the couples was a woman who was expecting and had some health issues that made her especially fragile. The other couple had a two-year-old son they hoped to bring with them on the vacation.
Things became difficult when the toddler contracted an infectious illness a few days before the holiday. His mom asked the other couples if it was still OK for him to come along, and they decided that it was too risky.
After hearing the news, she demanded back the $2000 share they had paid on the AirBnB, but the other couples were only willing to give back $1000, as half had been a non-refundable deposit. The parents quickly got upset, leaving one of the women dealing with this wondering if they had been too harsh.

The woman was thankful for a second opinion.
Couple try to bring unwell 2-year-old son on friend vacation, demand back non-refundable $2000 when told they can't come: 'Morgan told us we were selfish and horrible friends'
It is an unfortunate truth that every so often, vacationing with friends is a much nicer idea in theory than it is in practice. While it is fully possible to go on a friend trip and have a wonderful time, it can also bring out people's more unpleasant traits and uncomfortable relationship dynamics. It is the kind of thing that can either go very well or end very badly.
The more people who are involved in a vacation, the more this is true, and if kids are involved, there are also a lot more things that can potentially go wrong. Becoming a parent is always going to make certain activities more risky, and this has to be accounted for in the planning stage. If it isn't, then there is always a possibility that certain experiences are going to leave a lot more regret than enjoyment, and maybe even jeopardize some relationships in the first place.
