Say you have a wife and three grown children. The children are Joe, Sue, and Bob. You have a per stripes provision in your will. Bob has a daughter Jane. Bob dies. When you die, because you have the per stirpes provision in your will, Jane gets Bob's share. Since it is so easy to add two words to your will, there is no reason not to add them.

In Alabama, the parent would not be considered a wrongful death beneficiary of the adult child if there are no surviving spouse or children.

What happens to a beneficiary designation if the beneficiary dies - is there any protection for the beneficiary's children?
Generally the language in the will directs how the estate will be distributed provided that the will was carefully drafted by a competent attorney. A gift to a deceased beneficiary may pass to her/his heirs, her/his siblings or may lapse and pass into the residuary of the estate to be shared by all the other beneficiaries. The testator has the power to decide while the will is being drafted. If the testator has died you should have the will reviewed by an attorney to determine who receives the share of a beneficiary who predeceased the testator. If the will has been filed for probate then speak to the attorney who is handling the estate.

Can a person who has been named the beneficiary be made to split it four ways with brothers and sisters?
Respectfully, if all 5 Siblings are listed as beneficiaries this would be true. If only one is listed than only that one would be the beneficiary as this is a legal binding contract. If the beneficiary was listed in a manner like "All children born of said insured" than it would include all but exclude any adopted. So if there were adopted children than it would need to read "All children of said insured" but this is very open-ended as it may bring out some false claims of mystery children if the proceeds were big enough so in that case it may be best to list all the children by name. 4lifeguild If there are 5 siblings in a family, each is a beneficiary. If you meant that you were name Executor of the will, then that person ensures the wishes of the deceased person is carried out. If all the money was left to you alone and not the other siblings and it states that in the will, then you do not have to split the money. If you want to keep a good relationship with your siblings, then you may consider spliting it equally. Family and relationships are worth more than money. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beneficiary Respectfully, this may be true in that there may have been some past challenges in court cases, but if a judge rules against a legal binding contract such as a Life Insurance Policy than we really need to question the effectiveness of our judicial system! If it goes to probate and the judge says so, that's what will happen. If the person is named as the only beneficiary then the answer is no. That is a contractual agreement so it will hold in court (assuming this is the US) If the beneficiary is listed with any kind of split, or co-benficiary than yes, you must, again, contractually. 4lifeguild.com
