Not sure which of us was being unreasonable? Appreciate the responses in case it was actually me??
OK, so my mum and dad are sorting out some legal paperwork for wills etc, and my siblings and I have to sign paperwork for it. The paperwork was sent to me 2 weeks ago, for me to read, research, get a solicitor to check etc, then sign. Unfortunately with it being the summer holidays and a few other things it slipped my mind. My parents then came over today and told me due to the fact that I haven't signed the form yet they are removing me as a Trustee on their estate and just having my siblings because 'if you can't sign a form quickly, how can we trust you to do other things regarding the house?'. I was upset and said I was sorry, I had forgotten, had a lot on etc, but I would do my best to do it today. Apparently, that was too late, I was also told that if I was sent another letter due to the delay, I would have to pay an £80 fine. I said OK. This was all quite upsetting and my children were present. I asked them to stop talking about this, when they didn't I asked them to go. My dad continued on with the argument so I took the children upstairs. He continued shouting so from upstairs I asked them to leave, which finally they did.
This is all very upsetting, and seems like an over reaction to not signing a form promptly. There was no deadline, no rush needed. So what I would like to know is, did it warrant that reaction???
