I think that Scho's brother and his wife are less concerned about the money aspect and more about the personal/emotional well-being of their adult child once they have passed.
You can set up all the monetary needs that will take care of him/her, but finding a situation/group home that will provide the love and support needed is not always guaranteed.
Being the parents of a 32 y/o adult on the autism spectrum with much the same level of concerns my wife and I have grave concerns.
The problem is that there are resources available but those are maxxed out as they can be. Finding good group homes is not at all easy because they have long wait lists. And the ones that are available many times seem a bit sketchey.
