[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My BIL is a priest, and I was asked to be his son's godparent. I am not religious, and he is aware of this. Follow up question. Is it generally expected that a godparent will be the one to take care of the kid if the parents die? (Of course following whatever is stated in a will...)[/quote] Godparents are NOT by default, legal guardians when the parents die. If you don't know what your role as a GP will be, ask when you are invited to be one. Our kids each have their own set of GPs, neither of which is listed in our will as legal guardians. The people who we wanted to help guide our kids in their religious journey were not the same people we would want raising them day to day if we were gone - for many reasons (geographic, their family structure, economics)[/quote]
