[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I fully expect my mother's last act to be kicking me hard on her way to the grave, one last time. So no, I would not be upset because I am ready for it. I myself would never want my legacy to be conflict and pain between family members, but that's a major difference between the way I live and the way my mother lives.

It's just one more way to exert some power to hurt someone, IMO.[/quote]

Common sense prevails.  If you leave it to one, leave it to all.  You hit the nail on the head when you said favoritism is a great way to divide families!

OP, to answer your question, as long as the money is left to ALL grandchildren equally, I see no problem.  In fact, none of MILs (4) children need anything - they all own houses and have gone to college, for example.  So any money left to grandchildren would only help the grandchildren, as it should!  No grandparent, no matter how know-it-all, knows their children's money, and should be looking to help the grandchildren.  In my world, that is a grandparents job, if they are able to do it for one - in which case, they should do it for all, no question.
