Having 3 sisters to split stuff with made it increasingly difficult, but I used some of the tips in this book and we ended up making it work. I highly recommend this to anyone in that situation.

Sadly though I know this is a reality most of the time. I guess a detailed will can help with a lot of this stuff. I guess the worst is when there are no instructions left and the adult children want the same things, (which I think is always the case). Draw up a detailed will and dictate who gets what. This certainly won't eliminate all hard feelings, but at least it will provide some direction. I couldn’t imagine fighting over stuff while a loved one is dying.

There's enough emotional distress when someone dies, that you don't want to have to deal with so much on top of it. Who get what should be detailed before hand and you should try to get your parents to organise things as much as possible themselves (with your help) when they are still healthy and able to deal with it properly.

That would help out so much better in these types of situations, being estranged from them can really complicate things.
