- Resorts World will not provide proof that the chocolates will cost $2000 to replace.

- Marie and her kids were not staying overnight, nor was Marie a registered guest. Therefore, Brianne probably can't be legally held responsible for damage caused by someone else's kids -- only her own.

However, Resorts World could argue back that you're responsible for your own damage AND the damage of your guests, and that the credit card on the room covers all damage to the property, not just your own room. They could also argue that there is a labor cost to replacing and cleaning all of this, and it's not just the cost of the chocolates themselves.


Definitely Brianne owes and should pay something here. But what is the right approach? What would you do, aside from possibly beating your kid for this?


being Brianne let Maries Children have access and grant supervision to Briannes 13 yr old.... Yes Brianne is on the hook, Marie shd pay at least 1/2..imi.,.im not a lawyer
