My father left his modest estate to my sibling and I , stating that everything is to be split 50-50, and that we would co-own the home until it is sold. He also made me the executor. The will does not have to go through probate as our names have been on the deed for almost 20 years.

It still hurts that I am considered to have not 'done the right thing'.Both were handled by an attorney, I only signed papers, and still the first one left bad feelings that we have NEVER had in out families.I hate it you are having problems with a 'simple' job (as some folk say).

I do not see how myself, my wife and my kids can continue to have a normal relationship with her without diplomatically, gently, yet firmly confronting her. I will always have that creepy feeling in my gut if I don't get this out of my heart. And let her take my kids anywhere? No!
