My grandparents want to include me into their will, I am 34 with children. My mother who is in her 60's is furious and is demanding all the money go to her.

Is this normal? Should I tell my grandparents to not include me to salvage the family dynamic?

My grandparents keep calling me for advice, I have tried to stay as impartial as possible however it is escalating. I keep saying it's their money and up to them what they decide.

It’s up to your gparents what they do. If I was them and your mum behaved like that, you’d get it all. She sounds horrible.

Your mother sounds entitled. Your grandparents can leave THEIR money to whomever they wish. They should not be broadcasting their will though. Hopefully lesson learned.

I agree with pp. Don’t get involved.

Keep out of it.
Your grandparents can make their own choices!

Do not get involved in a row between your mother and her parents.
