[QUOTE="Jabberwockey, post: 739616, member: 18238"] [USER=17309]@Lil[/USER] and I haven't actually discussed this yet to a significant degree. We have made casual comments back and forth and although our son is doing ok right now, we'd probably end up giving him a small 5K or 10K lump sum and the rest would go in a trust fund paying out monthly. He is doing much better but the worry is still there. Add to that the fact that he's prone to binge spending and we still worry about him. Hopefully, before we die, he will have gotten himself more together and this might change but this seems the most reasonable course of action for us. We only have the one child but I can see where a rift would be caused between sibs when one gets more than the other although if we had another child, I'd have no problem docking our current son's inheritance a bit. Call it a Cost of Dealing with You deduction! No idea how Lil would react to this but its a moot point anyway. Not like we're in danger of having another any time soon. [/QUOTE]
