My Adult Children are Driving Me Crazy!

Written By Laura Grice

What to do when estate planning doesn’t stop the questions.

✅ You’ve done everything right.

✅ Met with your estate attorney

✅ Signed the will

✅ Chosen your Power of Attorney

You told your adult kids, “It’s handled.”
So… why are they still asking questions like:

  • “Did you actually finish everything?”

  • “Where is the policy?”

  • “What’s in the will?”

  • “Who gets what?”

And worst of all, they don’t trust each other’s answers.
You’re stuck in the middle, fielding the drama when all you really want is to enjoy a quiet retirement, not play family referee.

The Problem Isn’t Just Paperwork. It’s Access & Clarity!
Even the most thorough estate plan can fall apart if no one knows where to find the documents, what’s up to date, or how to navigate things when the time comes.

According to a CIBC study, nearly half of the people who do have a will haven’t discussed the details with family. That leads to confusion, second-guessing, and family stress that could have been avoided.

Here’s What Adult Children Actually Want to Know
Let’s be real: they’re not trying to be difficult. They just want reassurance.

Here’s what they’re really asking for, and how LifeBinder gives you the power to answer without repeating yourself:
