You can get them checked today but that does not screen for tomorrow. Cancer is often caused by habits such as smoking or consuming foods with various chemicals.
Cancer is not heridical but threw nurture.

I have had several relatives on bothe sides of my family who died WITH cancer and none were hereditary
BUT - Please read what this MacMillan site says at the top and in the text about Hereditary Cancer
It is however well worth contacting your GP and insisting on getting the kids screened if it is worrying you.
The fact is that less than 10% of Cancers have been linked to genetic inheritance.
