What are pretermitted children and what effect do they have on an estate?
What will be an ideal response?
A child who is born or adopted by the testator after a will has been executed that does not mention the afterborn or adopted child. The pretermitted child takes an intestate share of the parent’s estate. This only applies to minors and not to adult children. It can wreak havoc on a decedent’s intent. It is entirely possible that an afterborn child will take a portion of an estate that is larger than the siblings or inherit at the expense of a spouse.
