Given Task

I am the youngest among seven siblings. My father 5 years before his death left his last Will and Testament and unfortunately I was nominated as administrator and executor of the said testament. I find this not so much of a privileged but more a responsibility. I cannot understand why my one brother and sister felt bad about it.
It might be that they are older than me. Why some children would dictate their parents
and refused to follow their words. But, what is irony is that they refused to follow their parents but imposed to their children what they what refused of.

Relax bro. They must have been shocked to realise you will administrate thier share from the will. Ignore them as long as you let them have their prescribed share they have nothing against you. They never expected this to happen the way it did. They thought your old man will follow their dictatorship and do as they please. Tough they missed the point. Be strong and fair in your administration. Good luck.

Hi floiecometa, Seems you are the favorite of your father you were confident of your father you so maybe you chose to pay attention to him and can you just close to his heart.

Your Dad perhaps had seen your remarkable sense of responsibility during his life and for that he entrusted you this task. Instead of being so bothered about the ill-feelings of your other siblings you better just make good with your task and prove to them you worthy of the trust.

your father must have chosen you for a very good reason. it means he trusts you more than the others. it's not surprising that they felt bad about it.... but they probably can't be trusted anyway so they weren't chosen for the responsibility in the first place. I think since you took the responsibility, just do it. Never mind your siblings. they're just jealous.

Your brother and sister felt bad because they are much older and should be given the task of an administrator/executor of all your properties and not you as the youngest. Some children are motivated with greediness and make sure for themselves that they get the bigger pie so they dictate what they want from their dying parents who knew what kind of children they are.

Hi floiecometa...
That responsibility is difficult but you're lucky because you're being trusted by your father. Maybe your brother and sister felt bad about it because they're not expecting it to be handled by the youngest. Most of the time, that kind of responsibility is given to the eldest. So, you must understand their feelings. But be careful because in most cases like your situation, the siblings are having a very bad misunderstanding that leads to bad relationships with each other.
Best of luck..
