[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are many circumstances where I would *consider* it. If it drove a wedge between my children, that is due to their own emotional immaturity, so that would not be a reason for me not to do it.

I find it absolutely pathetic and contemptible when people blame the dead for their own lack of coping skills. [/quote]

What situations would you consider it?[/quote]

I’m sure I couldn’t list them all but things I’ve heard of and can understand? Health of the child, health of a grandchild requiring intensive care from a parent that interferes with their career, choosing to work for an institution that is important to our family values (eg my cousin who worked for a religious body that paid slave wages but my aunt and uncle were very devout in the faith), taking on a major caregiving role for family… [/quote]

OP here. Thanks for sharing. None of those issues are at play in this situation. I guess any of that could change at a moment's notice though, making 50/50 make sense unless they constantly update their will at every life situation change. [/quote]

I don’t think you’re adding anything to your life by trying to decide if your parents are right to do this, but you could take this opportunity to learn how to control your reactions instead of indulging yourself in this exercise. [/quote]
