[quote=Anonymous]This is how it works in most families. The adult child who does the most to take care of elderly family members in their time of need are thanked with a bigger inheritance. It causes resentment, but if you try to see if from the elderly family member's perspective - who was there for them when it counted? I know it stings, but it's not meant as a personal insult to you. In my family it's the reverse. To avoid this situation, all assets are divided evenly and even the kids who haven't spoken to their parents in 20+ years and didn't help when it was needed get an even share. Well, that scenario also causes resentment. I don't think inheritance splitting ever really feels fair. [/quote]
