[quote=Anonymous]We're in the process of making our will now and after ruling out most of our dysfunctional-at-best family members, we're also trying very hard to stay alive.

We did pick one guardian and one back up though. Especially since most of our relatives aren't fit to raise kids, we don't want it to be thrown to chance. We figure at this point we're just picking the least-worst options so our kids wouldn't be stuck with an even worse option.

This is a very difficult thing to do when you come from an abusive family. It really takes an emotional toll to catalog why each horrid family member wouldn't do. First you get screwed over by being born into this family and not having decent parents, then you get scared as an adult because you realize your children are so vulnerable if anything ever happens to you. It's like reliving it all again. It's one of those things that might be hard for people from stable homes to comprehend but the rest of us understand all too well.

Here's to a long and healthy life for the rest of us![/quote]
