Making a will seems to final but we need one if we want to ensure that our chidren are safe after we are gone ? Have you made yours yet and if not what is holding you back ?

We haven't made a will yet. I guess we just haven't taken the time to sit down and work one out. We don't really have that much to give. But I would like to get it done so that our kids are taken care of and they go to the right people. I guess it's hard facing the idea of leaving our kids behind.

Yes, it is very hard to think about how the kids will be left behind.. It terrifies me!

WE have made our will in the first year that we got married. Up to a few years ago according to the Malta laws, a couple whom do not have a will can be inherited by the spouses relatives. This often left part of the couple to fight for her rights with the deceased relatives. To avoid this inconvenience we did the will to inherit each other.

It is someting I think about a lot but never seem to get around doing . The truth is I think I am scared and keep putting it off . I have told so many friends what I want each child to have and have given my reasons and stories behind why I want them to have a particualar item but have not taken the time to write all this in a will . Thank you for your response .

No I have not made a will yet. I will do this when I have my own family. Right now I don't have much to leave to anyone so I have not made one. When I have a family of my own and have stuff I want to leave to anyone then I will make a will.

No, I have not thought about it too much. But when the discussion is in front of my face, I ignore it. I am scared to get a Will.. One day when I am very much older, I will do so. Yes, anything can happen, but I just don't believe that it will anytime soon.
