原則上除非原始房東同意二房東可以分租,您與二房東之間的任何協議本身都有可能是無效的協議,因為除非這個分租的行為本身是一個"合法"的情況(不是說對方分租違法,而是對方無權代表業主分租),您與二房東之間的任何協議最多是如果大房找二房麻煩時,二房不能找你麻煩,然而這不代表大房不能找您負擔任何損壞的問題,同時一般租屋,租用方可以購買保險來 cover 一些損壞,但是這個保險條約是否可以延伸至您與您的孩子所造成的損壞,老貓非常懷疑

良心說鑑於您的特殊情況,老貓會建議您一是考慮與真正的房東正式簽一個租約,也就是說您與二房東共同租用但是單獨合約,這樣您可以單獨購買保險,這樣任何問題您有保險可以幫助您處理,另外一種情況是您與二房東如檸檬老大所言,簽一個 whatever 的租約,反正您是 take a chance,等日後出了事再說,請特別留意下列資料
What if you're the subtenant?
MetLife's Moore says people who stay in homes on a sublet basis should purchase renters insurance to cover their own possessions and to provide liability coverage for themselves. He says a subtenant can buy coverage even without a signed lease. A change of address card or a receipt for the deposit would be the only requirement to prove, for insurance purposes, that a sublessee is living in the apartment.
Sometimes, a subtenant has another, permanent home but enters into a sublet arrangement during a temporary out-of-town work assignment, an extended vacation or an educational stint. In those cases, a homeowners or renters policy at the permanent residence may cover a computer and other personal possessions at the sublet.
But the Insurance Information Institute's Salvatore says there might be a limit, such as just 10 percent property coverage on belongings when they're away from the person's main home. That means subtenants with $20,000 in renters insurance where they normally live would be covered up to only $2,000 at a sublet apartment.
"A renter would be smart to insist that the subletter provide proof of their own renters insurance to cover their belongings and for liability coverage for the subletter before agreeing to the sublet," says Kitzmiller, of Mercury Insurance. "The subletter can purchase an annual renters insurance policy and then cancel it when they move."
老貓不知道您的二房東是否知道您的孩子的情況,如果有可能最好事前與對方真正溝通清楚,就算是對方不租了也好過日後真正出了事,雙方再鬧翻,同時老貓還是建議您與真正的房東溝通清楚,加州法律基本上保障租戶,所以隻要你一切依法行事,日後真正有問題,你不會吃虧.
然而不用擔憂,老貓瞭解您的心情 (不敢說全部但是也應該有一二),所以有事歡迎隨時來詢問.
