[quote=Anonymous]I had twins via a GC. If you said something along the lines of knowing they've been through a lot, and if they were thinking through their options, please know I (you) would be willing to serve as a GC if that was something they were considering. That way you acknowledge you don't know all their issues but you are making the thoughtful offer without being too "intrusive" of expecting them to tell you all their details. I'm not sure I would've at the time taken either of my sisters-in-law up on it, but I would've been touched by the offer (I had one say they wish they had offered after the fact in a heartfelt way & I was touched by that even - and now being on the other side of the situation, I think it would have been 'fine' and actually be a good/ok situation). It's one of those situations where there is no playbook & no one really expects to ever be in. We have a lovely relationship with our GC who I consider like family now.[/quote]
