Nobody has a legal right to inherit anything. If the father prepares a valid will he can leave his estate to anybody he wants and legally disinherit his children.

That being said, when someone dies without a will, then there are rules about who inherits the estate property through intestacy. If there is no wife, then children take in equal shares.
