We are very little prepared…this book would definitly help and would get me more motivated to put things down in writing!

i am not prepared at all. this product would at least make me moderatly prepared. the website is awesome!

We’re not prepared at all. I think we’re in that fearful stage since our little one is 20 months old. We don’t want to discuss it because we know it can happen. Of course, we’re not really helping ourselves or our son by not discussing it or planning for the future. These products would help us to sit down and actually make the plans we have been avoiding. We could really use guidance while figuring all that out.

I read the excerpt and I’m really not feeling very prepared at all! I have medical and other information ready for people who on occasion watch our son, but nothing in case neither my husband or I could be reached. The story is a bit scary, but sometimes that will probably work to get us to take action. Thanks for sharing this resource!

Wow, we’re not even slightly prepared. Maybr this book would be the kick in the rear end we need to start planning for our untimely demise. Hard to think about, but it can happen to anybody.

I am a new mom of an 8-month old..so I would say…I’m moderately prepared but highy intrigued! All I’ve learned so far is that you have to be persistant and prepared to wait wait wait! when taking care of legal stuff.

Yikes! I’m not prepared at all. I read the sample excerpt and am realizing this book will help me think about the unthinkable. It has great ideas about how to make sure your kids feel connected to you even if you die. Wow.

I think we’re fairly prepared, but it would be nice to know for sure what we still need to do. And I have no spare time to find out another way, so it would be great to have a fast-reading book to fill me in on the details.

I am not prepared at all! UGH!! We have examples of the legal paperwork in an envelope but we have not completed it for our family. I feel like such a bad parent! Reading this website has already given me a jump start on what I need to do…and so much that I hadn’t realized I needed to do!! I love that the kit comes with Audio CDs on How to Choose the Right Guardians, How to Complete Your Forms, How to Address Questions Your Family and Friends May Have, & Other Considerations You Haven’t Even Thought Of Yet About Naming Legal Guardians For Your Kids. m_huston(at)hotmail(dot)com

wow,after reading that im not prepared at all,yikesssssss,this would help me know what we need to do,what a mess for everyone if you didnt prepare,so looks like we are going to get better prepared,thanks

im sad to say that i am not prepared at all! Makes me worry about what would happen to our son if something happened to us!

I think we are fairly prepared but I would love to read the book

Fantastic giveaway! After fights following both my parents’ deaths, I’m definitely ready for different results in the future. I’d prefer the peace of mind knowing my kids had a positive plan ahead of them.

I read part of the excerpt and I am feeling a little scared for our kids at this moment. We have a will in place, but no written instructions or anything for if a babysitter is here or we cannot be reached. I think I will be buying this book if I do not win your contest. Put my mind at rest, that my kids will be OK if I am gone.

Oh goodness – I join the ranks of not prepared at all – scary as we do have a friend who lost a spouse ad the logistics were awful! So, we have a ton to do and could use help getting prepared!

We are not prepared at all, not in the least. Its scary to think about. but it has to be done to ensure our daughters future. thanks for this giveaway. thank you so much. i hope to win this, i truley need it. thanks

I think this sounds like a great book! I would say that my husband and I are not prepared at all-we’ve talked about situations, but haven’t done anything about it yet.

Your button is on my blog.

We are not prepared! And I want to make sure my son and his wife (family) IS prepared. I would love to win the book/giveaway for them, and, then, maybe get my own affairs in line too!

maggie@mannwieler.com

I thought differently, but apparently I’m not prepared at all either! lol Something we could all use, it seems

humm. I am in a different situation. I feel like I know what I need to do to be prepared, but my husband hasn’t a clue…a book like this might help him get on my side of the street and start thinking to the future. He always says my planning ahead is becuase I am a pessimist. Things always work out for him bec. he is an optimist…I think they are working out for him becuase I am doing the planning behind the scenes and steering it.
Thanks for the book reccomendation!

I am not prepared at all!! I keep think about all the things I need to do to be prepared but dont do it!! We have five kids so we really need to get prepared!!Something I want to get started in this new year!!! summrob1@aol.com

Wow…I don’t think we’re prepared at all. Looks like a good tool to help preparing for the..well…unpreparable!

We are not prepared. Honestly we have thought about it but have never taken the first step. I hope this product could get us there and show us the right path to travel.
Thanks for the entry

This would really help me get organized. This is something I really need to do on behalf of my 4 year old.

I am so not prepared. The site I think makes a good point that until I get things down, I should never be away from my kids. Thanks!

We are not prepared at all! I try to keep things together but it gets pushed behind with the hustle and bustle of daily life! This product would be a lifesaver!

We have your button!

We are so not prepared at all (guess that means we are a “yikes!”) We just had a baby so that really should be a wakeup call to figure out our finances and preparing for the future, but well. . .we have only been concentrating on our baby sleeping through the night. We need this book!

I have your button on my blog at http://tinyurl.com/5t9lye

I love the color on her site. It’s so fun!

I am sort of prepared. Nice site layout btw!

Shari – We can ALL relate to focusing on the whole SLEEP thing and letting everything else take care of itself! That’s why we love this book…it’s so simple and easy to read and the Planning Kit gets things done!!! Thanks for your comments, and here’s to a good night’s sleep!

I am not prepared at all and frankly the subject always was scary for me to even think about. From looking at he website and the book contents, it looks like it would help me tackle some tough and scary issues without being terrified and in that process allow me to be a better parent by looking ahead and making the right choices now!

We are moderately prepared. I would love to read the book though and feel much more secure about that portion of our future.

I have your button on my blog.

Hello, I feel like we are a little prepared. We still have a lot to learn! This books sounds like a very good life preparation resource! Please enter me in your delightful swag drawing. Many thanks…..Cindi

we have a lot of it done- with letters to people and I have a special box to the kids with stuff- ok I guess going thru cancer got me started but there is alot more to do

You have a great site, love the product review of this product. Makes me want to own it asap! I’m a single mother about to get married, so this product would be ideal for me!

I love all these different points of view. I say I am ready and prepared and then the day might go by and well…..I pull a Scarlett O’Hara and think tomorrow is another day…AND THANK GOODNESS FOR THAT! I will try all over again and eventually I will follow through on all of my goals. Good luck to everyone.

We are sooo not prepared. This would really help us put things in order in the event the unthinkable every happens.

I don’t believe too many people are prepared at all, YIKES!! And legal things should be sorted out FIRST! Great book

We are not even remotely prepared either and with two young ones it is not acceptable. While we do have life insurance we don’t have a will and that is mostly because my husband and I can’t agree on who should take our children should something happen to us. This would help us out tremendously! I think it is great that someone knowledgeable took the time to show us what our “inaction” could do to our children. Thanks!

I read the book excerpt and I just starting crying! I know that I am not prepared at all in case of an emergency and we have three kids and another on the way. This has already opened my eyes to our poor planning. I really hope I win this one! Thanks so much for the wonderful giveaway.

I have been bugging my husband for the last few years, that we need to make living wills…and with this book, i think he would take action. It seems pretty down to earth and easy to read/use. thanks for the a fab contest.

I have your button on my blog.

I love the fact that the book explains the need for planning with stories showing multiple scenerios. People get busy and forget how important it is. I had no idea how some of the other steps besides just a regular will there are. This would be so helpful!!!!

I would say moderately. Better get to work!

Wow, I LOVE all the comments about the kit, site and book!! I work with Alexis and feel the Kids Protection Plan is SO needed in our world. I gave the kit to my brother and sister-n-law over the holidays and they were STUNNED at the detail of the forms…and were HORRIFIED at all the things they had NOT thought of until going through the process.

It was the best gift I could have ever given them…and they are grateful. Just the thought of my 18 month old baby niece potentially being put in child protective services makes me cringe. And she often stays with my parents who are local to the area where my brother lives. I cannot imagine if they were also denied rights to care for my niece even temporarily while long term arrangements were sorted.

Get the kit now. That is really the bottom line. Alexis has made the price so unbelievably affordable so that all families at any income level can take part.

Look forward to seeing you on the KPP site! http://www.KidsProtectionPlan.com

Happy 2009.
With love,
Sahara

We are so unprepared, we don’t even know where to start! I was reading the story about Courtney’s aneurysm and it’s scary what scenarios could happen to anyone, especially us, since my dh has been prone to spinal tumors. I think this book would be a good motivator for us to get our affairs in order.

usually we play it by ear which occasionally leads to problems i need to be prepared this can get me moving in the right direction

we’re not prepared at all, i’m afraid

ummmmm, not prepared at all! Shameful.. I hang my head in shame!!!

We are moderately prepared but I would sleep better at night if we were more prepared. I love that someone took the time and expertise to put such a great book together for parents who are busy and just don’t think enough about such things on a daily basis. I guess we always think bad things won’t happen to us and when they do we leave our unpreparedness to our grieving family.

My wife is a medical doctor as am I so I hope that our family is prepared but I would still like to have a copy of the book to pass along to my friends who are less prepared.

I fall into the Yikes category, I’m afraid. I’ve not done any planning for the inevitable. This book and kit would help me by leading me step-by-step through the process of estate planning. I think the product is very well put together and will sell very well due to its uniqueness and well-targeted marketing. Thanks for the giveaway!

I thought that I was doing pretty good, but the reality is I’m not.

I am not prepared at all this book would help a great deal please enter me to win!!

My family is not really prepared for this I think this would be a great book to have to be able to familiarize myself and my family with the ability to educate ourselves to become more repared please enter me to win this amazing prze!

We’re not prepared, this book would be a good reality check.

I am not prepared at all, even though I have thought about it, I just never knew where to start, This book would be a wonderful asset to have so I could start making a go at getting prepared. I would absolutely love to win this.

I have your button on my blog sidebar!!

We are moderatly prepared, but do need to update and finish.
It would help us reach our goals of being completly prepared.

There should be a category for “completely in denial that this kind of thing is even necessary.” Because that’s US. We’ll be married 10 years in April, and the only kind of conversations we’ve ever had about this subject are “please make sure my AC/DC CD’s go to …” and “Can you make sure they play this song at my funeral?” Now we have a daughter, and we REALLY need to get it together, for her sake.

We are not prepared at all…I know what we kind of need to do, but this might be a good kick in the butt!

We need to make a will! We need this product badly!

Unfortunately I fall into the not prepared at all category. The book will certainly help me get prepared. Thanks for the giveaway!

I love that its both entertaining and practical. I’m bookmarking the site so that I can return in a few months to get it and also to forward to others!

My family are not prepared! I would love to win this book to assist my family in preparing for financial security for my children, spouse, etc.. Her website was full with information from various people who already read her book. Encouraging.

It is difficult to think of emergencies but you simply NEED to be prepared!

OMG is the exerpt scary! I must say we are moderatly prepared and have life insurance and legal guardians set up for my kids. We planned on doing a will with a financial planner but never got around to it. My friends thought I was crazy as a 20 year old planning a will. My father in law was a social worker for the state and saw what happened to families in tragedies where nothing was set up. Especially with families on medicaid the state takes all assets. All our cell phones are programmed with ER spouse and home so that people looking for numbers can easily find them. Also, everyone who takes care of my children, including play dates, are not only given mine and my husbands numbers but both grandparents cells. I know it’s scary and put our cell numbers in our kids shoes and our sick child always wore his medicalert bracelet (where they have all emergency family numbers including doctors who also were given guardianship in emergency), but I’m scared and would love to win this package!

Aura – The ER Spouse and home entries in the cell phone is a great idea! Thanks for sharing!

What a terrifying subject. It just goes to show that if Alexis Martin Neely was not prepared – working in the field, that most families will not be prepared either.
What a sence of peace to know that you have legally binding plans for your children if the worst should happen.
Thank you for shedding light on such an important subject.

I’ve got your button ))

Scary. No, I haven’t planned for my family and have no idea how to start this. Which is why winning this would be so useful!

This is scary. We are not prepared at all and this is something we’ll need to sit and discuss.

We are a family of four and hopeing to be 8 and this would definitely help us and set our minds somewhat at ease, especially in these crucial times.

I would love to win this to help us get a start on this, but if not we are definitely starting this discussion

I am not prepared at all but looks like this book could be a life saver.

I like how it helps you with decision making. Thanks for the chance.

I am moderately prepared and this would help me become fully prepared. I like her style in the excerpt!

This product is an absolute necessity today! Even though we are moderately-to-highly prepared, I’m sure we could take a tip or two (or three!) away from this book! And the planning kit looks fabulous!

None is reallyprepared in reality. This book and kit is so wonderful, and reminds us that life IS unpredictable.

This looks like a very unique and thought-provoking book! We are not very prepared, which is something I’m a little embarrassed about. As a nurse, I witness people die far too young far too often. I think it’s one of those things that is uncomfortable to think about so many people try to avoid making those plans/decisions.
Thanks for the chance to win.

With four kids my husband and I should really prepare more for the what if in life.

I think this product is a must have for all parents!

This would be great to help us get prepared…

Pick me, Pick me- would love to own this incredibly necessary book….

I am not prepared at all. I’ve thought about it but this has really opened my eyes. Probably to us all.

Nice product. I think we are fairly prepared. Thanks!

We are totally unprepared, but since the birth of our child we really need to plan for the worst.

This book should be on the list when you leave the hospital after giving birth or better yet when you find out your pregant. Its scary to think now what I din;t know then. Thanks for the great giveaway

This is such an amazing book! It makes me realize that we as a family are moderately prepared. There are still some legal details we are missing! This book would make sure everything would be tended well for our sweet’um if need be! Thanks so much to Alexis Martin Neely for caring so much!

And, thanks for this amazing give~away! : )))

What a great book and a kit! So helpful for any family, because, let’s face it, noone is prepared…great giveaway!

I am slightly prepared, but never paid much mind because there wasn’t alot financially to consider. I think this book will open my mind and let me know exactly what I need to do to protect the future of my family.

I read the excerpt and HOLY CRAP!! I’m totally not prepared!

I agree with some of the above comments, My family is totally unprepared and with expecting my third child, we should be! Thanks for a great giveaway

Whew I’m not at all prepared. This is one of the things I have put off. If I win this prize would enable ne to do this very inportant task of protecting my children.

A must have for expectant parents!

We’re totally unprepared – this would help us get our legal status in order for our kids

My husband and I have talked a little about what if, but we are not prepared at all. Sad to say, but will change that soon. Thanks for the eye opener

im somewhat prepared but i could use some help in many areas..please count me in

After reading the exerpt I feel less prepared than I thought with regards to my estate planning.

I am not prepared at all. I thought it was too soon but now I think that I need to get on the move with doing this

I am moderately prepared and would love to read the rest of the book to give myself even more peace of mind.

I have your button on my sidebar.

I’ve been prepared since I had my first child 30 years ago. I also lost my sister 6 years ago and was the executor ofherestae so I revised al my stuff again. I’d like to pass this book onto my son who has two young daughters

I am not prepared at all. but a person should be!

I am much less prepared than I ever imagined! Wow! What an eye opener!!! Thank you so much for the opportunity to enter!

I would say I’m not prepared at all. This product would help me by providing clear and easy to understand information on what steps I need to take to protect what’s valuable to me. Wear Clean Underwear sounds very interesting and informative!
