[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First of all, it's completely unfair to expect a widower to promise to never have more children.

Second, I am a spouse in a blended family, with stepchildren and a child of my own.  If anything, the majority of our assets are mine, but my husband and I have agreed that all of the children will share in both of our estates equally.  Yes, I could favor my "blood" child, but all of the children are part of my child's family.  I have seen hard feelings over an inheritance break apart more than one family, and I would not want to leave my child with lots of money but discord and hard feelings between the only brothers and sisters he has.

As long as the father is taking care of his first son's needs -- college, etc., I think he has every right to build a new family and that includes treating everyone equally.  If the son is attending a "prestigious" school, then it sounds like that is the case.

[b]I think OP is focusing on the money because she doesn't want to admit that the remarriage is the problem[/b]. [/quote]
