>> one couple are leaving it all to charity, like myself
My mother is doing the same.
In Scotland you can't legally remove a child's right to inherit with a will so if myself or my siblings wanted to, we could claim our slice of the pie.
Prevents weaponising of wills by vindictive parents.
If you really don't want a surviving child to get a payout you can always give it away while you're alive I guess.
ps. My mother isn't being vindictive - she just thinks the money would be more help to the PDSA than her reasonably well off offspring.
