When previous generation member/s either deliberately or through inaction, deprives an upcoming generation of a family's birthright to its rightful inheritance of property and/or assets. The inheritance is the baton which had not been handed over to the next generation, in the Relay Race.
I could have owned money, property or a business but my parent/s decided. they couldn't be bothered signing some legal dcuments, and left my inheritance in limbo for someone else to grab. Man, what a Generational Relay Race Fail.
