What Is Children’s Life Insurance?
Children’s Life Insurance is a life insurance product for people under 18. This coverage can be used as a savings product for your child, covering funeral expenses and medical expenses that may not typically be covered under a standard policy.
Guaranteed Security
As a parent, your biggest goal is to lead your child in the right direction and teach them how to make good decisions. You also understand that you must teach them that sometimes, life happens. Purchasing a policy for your child can help to guarantee that they grow up fully insured. Your child may grow up to find themselves in a situation where they are not financially able to purchase insurance or develop an illness where they cannot be covered. Children’s Life Insurance can be their safety net. The coverage you purchase for them now could potentially save their life later.
Cash Value
Another great thing about purchasing a Junior Life Insurance policy for a child is the fact that it builds cash value. This means that, as your child gets older, they will be able to withdraw money from their life insurance policy for things like medical bills, college tuition, purchasing a home, or other life events, tax-free!
Death Benefit
It is already understood that life insurance is purchased to take care of loved ones after death. No parent ever wants to think about losing a child, but it is a harsh reality that some have come to face. The emotional toll such a loss can take on a family is enough; ensure that finances don’t also become a burden. The purchase of life insurance for your child can ensure that money will not be an issue for your family so you can give your child a proper burial.
Affordability
Many people assume that children’s life insurance is expensive, but many would be surprised to find that this is actually not the case. Life insurance for a child is typically less costly than it would be for an adult. Some plans can even start as low as $2.50 per month to cover a child.
As you can see, there are actual benefits to purchasing a life insurance policy for your child. All parents want their children to be as successful and fulfilled as possible in their adult lives. The best way to do that is to ensure they have a solid foundation.
