So the teenagers mother offered but never paid. Interesting.

The critical part that you left out was the offer was rejected by Mrs. Young. That is why the families never paid. I think that is a pretty significant detail to leave out. That is even more interesting.

" The critical part that you left out was the offer was rejected by Mrs. Young."

Also left out was the full amount Mrs. Young was asking for. The family said they would pay if some conditions were agreed to, yet Mrs. Yougn decided to go to court and ask for much more $$$$.

Are you sure that is why they never paid? Per the article:

Young soon figured out who had left the cookies and complained to Taylor's mother, Jill Ostergaard. She said Ostergaard and Lindsey's mother, Martha, offered, "even insisted" on paying almost $900 in medical bills not covered by insurance. But the months dragged on, and the families never sent the money.

"I really tried to settle this out of court four different times," Young says. "I'm not sure where it all went bad."
