Hello,
I have a sibling who is taking some conversion classes and my mom who is also a Noahide like me is concerned about the legal implications of what my sibling is doing. For example, my mom read that if a convert passes away, all the properly of that person will go to the Jewish community. This is concerning to me because even though my sister is single, she still has parents who are Noahides. In my culture, it is reasonable to expect kids to provide for their parents if the kids pass before the parents.
How should this be viewed and handled by my family? I know that my sibling still has to honor her parents regardless of whether she goes through the conversion or not.
Thank you,
Carmina
