So I have been married for 3 years, my DH has a son that is 17 and we have DS who is almost a year. DSS is lovely and we have a great relationship. I actually have a better relationship with him than DH but we see him about every month for a few days and have a great time.
When we got married I brought a house to the relationship and DH although hard working brought some debt.
We have just had to make our wills and I am desperate that should/when we pop our clogs that no one is upset.
However I don't feel that both sons should get an equal share as essentially all the money has come from me (apart from DH's life insurance). We have decided to leave 25% of our estate to DSS. It would be enough for a house deposit for him. DS would obviously need a trust as he is still dependant and will be for a good while.
I know we are very unlikely to both die soon but I don't want there to be any trouble between brothers if we did. Has anyone else had experience of this?
AIBU to not leave them 50/50?
