This is brutal in a very specific way. Not an inheritance issue, but a final administrative act of erasure. Calling it “just legal jargon” misses the point completely. He made a choice to put rejection in writing. That says everything about him and nothing about your worth.

Thanks for the affirmation, Gino 😘

Yes, a deliberate act and not about you. I know in California you have to specifically mention someone in the Will if you want them not to have any claim. Saying that they are predeceased is not a requirement

Hmmm, the pieces are fitting together. Thanks, Michael 😉

I don’t know if it is a specific type of legalese written language, but last week I read the exact same verbiage in the will of my partners’ mother, relative to one of her children. The son was not estranged, nor were his children and she provided no explanation. I’m

Just the Executor, but just reading it hurt my heart. I simply can’t imagine how you feel….gratuitous cruelty. Men may be able to produce children but it surely doesn’t make them a dad.

You deserved better and your children deserved better.

Wishing you the best

Ok thanks. Sadly, all of my meta accounts have been suspended. It’s been about 5 weeks. Appealing, but out my control. Appreciate your concern. Hopefully back soon. – Charlie

Just, "wow!" It's sad that this kind of thing is part of our experience. Love should overwhelm, but it doesn't always. We all fail to love. And we often know we are doing it. But this is an example of swinging all the way to the other side, to hateful action. Snuffing out love. Or trying. Stomping on it. Or trying. My viewpoint is that everyone gets overwhelmed and does things they're not proud of, wrong things, but it's hard to imagine being so overwhelmed that one would leave this kind of document as a final act. I'm sorry, Charles.

I read that and am agast. You certainly did not need that intentional slap to the face! You deserve better. I know you were not expecting anything, but to make conscious decision like that tells me a lot about that man and it's not good. As others have said, having a child does not make you a father! Sorry for your pain! You are loved!

I am so sorry for the unnecessary, intentional pain. Peace to you.

Charlie, fine if he didn’t want to leave you anything why couldn’t he have left it at that?

I understand that you didn’t expect anything but that’s just an unnecessary slap in the face.

The only thing I have to send you is SO much Love and Respect! 🫂🫶💕

I’m sorry you had to go through this. You deserve better from your family. This is just beyond cruel. Again, I’m sorry.

Not unexpected, but a final and forever message I will carry with me

Tristan Sanchez's avatar

You do have people who support you no matter what. I certainly do. You don’t need those who don’t give a shit.
