[quote=Anonymous]If you think your parents would be comfortable letting you look things over, by all means ask. But from where I sit, it kind of seems like this isn't your business. Since you plan to be uninvolved, and you can't be legally obligated to be involved, it's not really your problem. Believe me I get that you want to make sure everything is done correctly -- I had a very similar situation with my grandmother and my severely mentally ill father. I knew grandma was leaving $$ to dad and I wanted it to be structured in a way that would not allow dad to be irresponsible. I knew that if he blew through it, I would be left supporting him (not legally but I know I would do it). I discussed my concerns with grandma and she assured me it was taken care of, and when she died it turns out it wasn't. But there was nothing more I could have done -- while grandma was alive it was her prerogative to keep her plans private. I wish she hadn't, but it was out of my control. [/quote]
