A close member of my family that impacts me is facing a lower share of inheritance- out of 4 kids, one gets 40 the rest gets 15 or so. Granted, one part is well off but the others are positioned to be well off but are not. The explanation was that the one that will inherited more makes a lot less (true) - this sibling has been almost inseparable from the parent but has also dependent financially on the parent - that sibling is not so low since he married into money but then lost it all- also now dating someone for 10 years who is a millionare, So- not hurting. I perceive this as a slap in the face - not that we counted on this money in any way but giving the paper poor sibling a lot more basically cements how this IL felt about the family. I would be so hurt if my parents did this to me.

Squabbling or being concened over someone's will, other than your own, is incredibly petty. Myob.

I can't understand the scenario.

Sounds like the parent thinks you are not a very nice person and cut you out. I obviously don't know you, but your post gives the impression they were correct.

I would be hurt about losing the family member, not the lost inheritance

What's it like being Muslim? Well, it's hard to find a decent halal pizza place and occasionally there is a hashtag calling for your genocide...

OP here- this item didn't come up until recently, the money is not the thing that stings (my family has more- all of this doesn't change the way we live which is rather middle income). It's the message- one sibling out of a very close family (who were all there for everything- way more than my family) deserved more- yet was frankly the one who married and divorced money, then dated into money yet was working minimal jobs util the death.

Parent cut out 3 kids out of 4- their kid's spouses and grandchildren are just and end result of the decision.

I think it means that one of the kids has been at home taking care of the mother, and now the other siblings are surprised that she's leaving her the family home.

15% = "cut out"?
