It's extra hard since we've never taken the girls before and I don't know what would be the easiest for everyone concerned!!
It's a tough decision, I understand. Renting points can lock you in depending on the owner, some won't let you cancel at any point. I'm sure there are owners that may allow you to cancel up to a point but after that you lose all money if you can't go.

If you book through Disney you can cancel very close to the day you arrive but you'll pay more for the same room.

I've rented points from a member on here and it was a very easy transaction and we had a wonderful trip at a deluxe resort at a moderate price.

Good luck!
