[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’d trust my DH to ensure our children were cared for. I think it’s much more important to worry about this after divorce with possible remarriages on the horizon. But death I guess is possible too.

But we don’t have millions, so if I died I’d want DH to have access to all of it to make sure the kids could be provided for. I guess if I was going to get a a big inheritance I’d maybe put that in a trust on my death to go to my kids. But. I trust my DH with this. [/quote]

Fathers almost never protect their adult kids financially when a new spouse comes into the picture.  They might put trusts in place, but they are easily accessed by the new wife.  [/quote]

A man wants to teach his kids how to fish. If they learn, great! If they don't, oh well, they are adults and will figure it out. Mothers, otoh, want to feed their kids fish throughout the kids' lives. That mindset difference manifests in different ways including the one you describe. [/quote]
