Common perceived obstacle to writing an ethical will nicely handled in article

The Accidental Senior column made a great point today about why some people are hesitant to write an ethical will: that nobody would be interested in reading it.  Quoting from the article, “People often think that nobody would be interested in knowing all this about them, and they are usually very wrong! If you were to ask your children if they’d like you to write their life story so they’d have it after you were gone, you might not get much of an answer. No child likes to anticipate the loss of a parent, and your mentioning this might make it a little too real for them.” Great point. Read the entire article here.
