Default Had that awkward chat with my parents last night

They called my sister and I to come over their place for dinner to discuss their will. They had it updated and basically had the discussion with us about who gets what and how to handle things when they pass on. One of the most awkward conversations ever. I hate talking about death even though its inevitable and you have to plan for these things, but still...I hate it.



Anyone else get really uncomfortable when talking about the subject with their parents?

By reading the topic title I thought you were coming out of the closet.

^As did I.

My parents have all the papers drawn up, but I have no idea what's on it.

Everybody dies. It's not awkward, it's natural. That nobody freaked out and ran away crying is a sign that you and your sister are mature enough to have this talk.
