[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This marriage seems to be in trouble already based on your description. We are leaving our child mid-eight figures (as you would describe it). You can bet there will be a prenup.

If I were in DD’s parent’s shoes, I would probably agree to fund grandchildren’s education and chip in on a house but insist on a prenup.[/quote]

Why do you say the marriage seems to be in trouble and then also say “you bet there will be a prenup”?  
The very idea of a prenup is to think about what happens if the marriage falls apart— [b]so do you think a prenup makes that more likely but you are ok with that, or do you think a prenup for someone else is a bad sign but for your kid it isn’t?[/b][/quote]

Sorry there is no “gotcha here.” Not to mention, I was the second person to state this. With reading comprehension, it’s obvious: I think the son is out of line. He is worried about “funding his wife’s extravagant lifestyle while she keeps all of her (parent’s) money in a trust?” This doesn’t sound very loving. It sounds like a judgy “tit for tat” relationship where there is no trust.[/quote]

Sorry but either you think a prenup is a symptom of a “judgy tit for tat relationship with no trust” or you don’t.

If a woman asks for a prenup you don’t get to judge a man for asking how his interests will also be protected. [/quote]
