You are not required to leave anyting to yrou adult children. if you fail to provide for minor children the bequests of your will may be altered by the probate court. If you are silent about aspecific child, they may be able to convince the court that you simply forgot, and get the will amended to conclude them. The attorney that is drafting your will should be able to explain this all to you. If you are going without a live attorney, (such as with a form form abook or th einternet) then any child left out will likely be able to have the will nullified or altered to make them an equal beniciary.
Good luck
