Do Your Children Have Right to Demand Inheritance if You're Still Alive?

[dr. d]

parents can do what they will to the properties, for as long as they are alive. but once they die, all properties up for inheritance shall be divided among the heirs:
children and surviving spouse get half, to be divided equally among them; and the surviving spouse get the other half.
recognized illegitimate children get half of what a legitimate child gets. un-recognized ones get nothing.
kabits get nothing.

if the division is in-equitable as is described above, there must be written justification in the will. if none, then those who feel short-changed can go to court.

This is exactly the correct legal answer to this question.

I think it's a standard na bigay talaga house sa girl na anak.

Well ganon samin. Reason is mas dehado girl kung sakali may saltik maging asawa.

Boys should be able to provide for his future or present family.

House is for the youngest boy in the family although unmarried girls should stay.

Why is it for the youngest boy? Read your last sentence.
