[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 716508, member: 1550"] I think its a bad idea to make one child executor of the will. My father did this and I trust my brother to do the right thing although we dont talk much. And when my mother passed I talked to a lawyer friend but decided to not challenge anything as my mother truly did not like me and it was her right to disinherit me. I didnt even read the will. I let it go. I would have appreciated a copy of the will, but it never came. So be it. She had abused me from infancy on. This was her kiss off from the grave. In her life, she was a nasty piece of work to me. And I dared to challenge her. So she did what she did...hurtful, but not unexpected. However, I do have a decent relationship with my father and he has left me 1/3 of anything he has left when he passes. If I dont get my part in a timely fashion, we will go after things with our lawyer friend.i hope it goes smoothly and I receive a copy of the will and what my father wants me to have, even if most of it is used up. In fact, this time I will make sure my interests and my fathers wishes are honored in the proper time frame. If there are delays, I expect to know why. It is my sister I dont trust and although I dont think my brother will be influenced by her, but I am taking no chances. Not this time. It will be my last correspondence with my siblings and I am eager to have no ties to Sis for the rest of my life. This suspicion happens when siblings are in charge of wills and dont all get along. I feel it is unfair for a parent to put this responsibility on a child. If you cant handle it, hire a lawyer. Yes, you will have to use some assets to pay. But in my opinion the peace of mind is worth it. I dont know why some people turn death into ugliness unless you are truly being withheld info or truly expect being cheated. Even then, deal through your lawyers. Ihave a lawyer in charge of my will. I am sorry for this pain in the neck. [/QUOTE]
