And yes! I couldn't agree more. Children aren't entitled to ANYTHING. I don't care who you are. However, most parents do leave behind things for their children. And to me honestly, I really don't care either way. [My parents have told us that they will be leaving things for each of us. But like I have said, it's really nothing that concerns me or that I'm anxious about] Also, that is true about divorce. However, apparently after 7 years it is more likely you are in it for the long run with a marriage. I can't find the study, but if I do I will for sure PM it to you Smile

He is very nosy when it comes to immediate family matters. Not really sure why. He also thinks he knows EVERYTHING that is going on with my family, my Dad's family and my Mothers family. But he really doesn't. 

And that is a pretty good solution. But boy, I wish I could muster up that kind of courage. If I am ever in this situation I'll try to tell him it's none of his fucking business. I will go about it kindly, of course.

However, like I have said previously on here; I just find it incredibly disturbing that he seems to have really thought about this.

Can't do it in person (I don't fault you for that for many reasons) and have his email/text/twitter, do it in writing. Get him to repeat what was basically said in the car, then make your point.

That is not a bad idea. However, I do not have much communication with him outside of real life interactions. 

On another note. I really enjoy and respect your posts. I think I'm going to call you Uncle M.h. from now on   Smile
