1: FANTASTIC
This book is the most educational tool any family could have. It's a one-way ticket to PEACE OF MIND if you're a parent. There are so many goodies in the book that provide information on how to act on some of the steps to protect your family -- all free. Fantastic book.

2: A must read for all parents!
Outstanding book! This book was recommended to me by another financial planner. After reading it, I now give a copy to each of my financial planning clients. It is written in very easy to understand stories that captivate the reader while educating him or her. This book is not intended to replace a professional attorney, but it should be read before meeting with one (I do not think the one negative reviewer understood this). As a parent, I highly recommend this book to other parents.

3: Heart-wrenching necessary information
I haven't read the book in its entirity yet but just reading the first of three possible scenarios, this book really helps push you over the edge to get your legal matters taken care of ASAP. I highly recommend it for new, busy parents. It is crucial to make sure your kids are taken care of in the hopefully unlikely event of a parent's death. And this book gives some great pointers on making sure you do it the right way. It will not spell out everything though and you will still need to see an attorney to get your wishes into legal documents. Bottom-line: this book will give you the tools to know what you want for your children so you don't feel completely lost or like you wasted money seeing an attorney without knowing what you want or need. Read it!

4: Simple stories, big legal lessons
Through story-telling style, Neely shows how making simple, doable changes in a will or child care guardianship can empower your family, and carry out your wishes after your gone. We have power, even in death, to guard protect those we love. She asks good questions, opens your mind to the possibilities, and consequences of good and not so good choices typical parents make in wills. Like a checker game, She shows you what a 'move' or two down the legal road looks like in reality. It's simply written, interesting material, easy to understand and take with you wisdom you can use. There are nuggets of wisdom that apply to all ages.

5: Thought Provoking and Helpful
Great book. Estate planning is something we never seem to make time for, and when we do, oftentimes we just do it without real thought. This book really does and should make you think - it covers various scenarios of things that could happen and the dreadful repercussions that do happen if you have not planned properly. Maybe all the information can be found elsewhere - but it is fantastic to have it all in one place. The book is not overwhelming - it is just right for people who are wanting to do the right things to safeguard their families and estates, but are not sure what all the steps should be. I have a will and I thought I had covered all our bases along with my husband, but boy was I ever wrong. I have quite a few things to do to really safeguard our children, and one of those things we accomplished today - thanks to this book. Life is busy, life is complicated; we put off things we really should do, we also think we know all that needs to be done - but this book shows how wrong we are. The personal things that this book suggests to help your children should you no longer be here, is worth the purchase price alone. Do yourself and your children a favor, buy the book and put the things in place that will help you sleep better at night, knowing your children are safeguarded and that you have done all you could possibly do.
