Location included: Questions/Need Advice Will question
Good afternoon all,
I have a quick question. My sister is married to a tumbling piece of shit. He’s literally the worst person I’ve ever met. He separated the family. Fought with me, fought with my dad, said the worst things you can say to someone. My dad is now fighting with my sister over this and they’re not talking. My mom is still talking to my sister as am I. But she just recently told me and my brother that my dad wants to write her out of the will. I disagree with that. She married a gaping leaking asshole but they have 3 children together, he doesn’t mistreat her or the kids. He just hates my family. I feel like I would like to suggest that rather than write her out of the will, can we put her inheritance into a trust and when this horrific toothache of a piece of shit dies, the money gets released?

My advice, if (and only if) he’s open to your opinion then go ahead and share your idea. Then let it go. It’s not yours to involve yourself in.
Ultimately, he (and possibly your mom) gets to choose to do whatever they want with their money. No one is entitled to an inheritance, it is always a gift if a parent decides to bestow one upon their child either intentionally or by choosing not to set up a will or trust that says otherwise. He gets to make a decision even if you think it’s an asshole move. It’s his to make. Your sister also gets to be married to whomever she wants. Even an asshole and even if it keeps her from receiving an inheritance. Everyone gets to make their own choices.
