Thank you for the responses. Not at all what I might have expected.


Yes, it is important to talk about finances, wills, trusts, etc. with children. All will be equally split between her and her brother. 


What was most shocking for me is that daughter was remembering information, or a conversation, between her Dad and I that took place about 10 years ago. That she has a hard time remembering basic day-to-day things, she remembered THAT.


Son is nosy and likes to butt into things that are none of his business. Just the other day he was lecturing me about our finances. It may seem like a good thing, but he's obnoxious and irritating. In short, he accused, YES accused, me of not saving for retirement and let me know (with his finger pointing) that HE would NOT be supporting me or his Dad in our late years. That's fine, I responded. I wouldn't want to be dependent on my adult children anyway.


I live in such a bizarro world with those two.
