[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You "kind of" get their point of view OP, really? They were completely disinherited, and you have no real information about why or how the marriage ended. That's not to say you should reject the inheritance, but yeah, be prepared for alegal battle. And perhaps internalize that this man did something deliberately and extremely hurtful to his own children, perhaps with your mother's support. It's  one thing to have a distant relationship; another thing to completely disiniherit your children in favor of step-grandchildren, when there's  apparently plenty of money to go around. It's kind of bad karma. [/quote]

If the kids did not see him for the last 20 yers, you still think they deserve something? Why?[/quote]

I doubt the truth of that narrative, and also the reasons behind if it's true. A complete disinheriting is meant to hurt your children as your dying act -- short of something really, really terrible, why would you do that? Not saying that this changes anything about the will, but yes, OP should be a tiny bit more empathetic. [/quote]

DP. Your position is inconsistent - you think people should put their kids first when it comes to inheritance issues, but you apparently think the OP (who has herself inherited nothing) should act against her own kids' interests to the benefit of these strangers who are writing her rude emails and with whom she has no relationship even though she was close to their father.[/quote]

No, I didn't say that. But she asked for "perspective" and seems to not understand why the kids would be upset. So that's the perspective - her kids are the beneficiaries of a person's really hurtful move towards his biological children.  [/quote]
