[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Every good financial advisor and accountant will tell you that you need to make it equal if you want some sort of family harmony, unless say you have a child with severe special needs or something. As has been pointed out, one child may seem better off than another, but one major illness or emergency can change all that.

In most of the cases I have heard of and even in my own extended family-in functional, healthy families, the parents chose to keep things equal and even made sure the child who was there for them was paid during that time for missed work, etc. In dysfunctional families there is all sorts of unfairness and even siblings who liked eachother sometimes find their relationships fall apart in the aftermath.

Time again people on here rant about how parents can do what they want and children are so greedy and time again any expert will tell you to keep things equal for the sake of harmony and basic decency.[/quote]

Financial advisors and accountants may be experts at financial matters, but I've never heard that they are expert in interpersonal relationships or family counseling.  Did they add a degree component about which I'm not aware?  Maybe some CLE requirements?  [/quote]
