    I would avoid giving a general to anyone because they could do that and anything else they wanted, (always carries a risk)... I would limit it to specific tasks. Known as a limited Power of attorney. BUT you have to know everything... because it is limited to specific tasks.

    A General would actually be easiest for your daughter (she could do whatever comes up)... but puts your son-in-laws assets at greater risk.
