Should two adult children be treated differently re inheritance, because one has children and the other one does not, by choice or not?

I would argue that they should both be treated the same.

Adult DC should be treated the same , but I'd also leave some to the GC.

I think they should be treated the same ,i know that my parents will is that myself and my sister will inherit 50% each we both have two children who will indirectly benefit from that.

Exactly the same.

TAAT

And in that scenario, the grandchildren were the ones who "inherited"

It's up to the parents who they give their money too.

Personally, I'm giving my children equal shares, regardless of the amount of children they have. I hope they understand from this that I love them equally. Which I do.

I think they should be treated fairly (maybe not exactly the same as the grandchild’s also are separate direct descendants of the deceased)

Is this you with the thread about 3 kids in private school again?

No. Both treated the same

I think they should be treated the same. Maybe with a bit going straight to GC. My GPs left £10k each to my sibling and I and it was much appreciated and enabled me to go travelling and buy and carpet my first house (a while ago obviously 😂).

I think adult children should be treated the same. However I don't think grandchildren inheriting in their own right as unfair treatment on the childless adult.
