Insurance Considerations for your Children

Family with KidsYour children may not have financial responsibilities and they may still need to be reminded to brush their teeth and clean behind their ears every night, but that doesn’t mean that they have no need for insurance.

From birth until the time they reach financial independence, your children need your help in maintaining appropriate insurance coverage for all their needs.

Health Insurance
There is no time in a person’s life when they should be without health insurance. When bringing your children to the doctor, to the emergency room after an accident, to get shots and regular checkups and attending to every other medical need, the last thing you need to worry about is how you will pay for the treatment. Health insurance is an affordable expense that controls costs and out-of-pocket expenses without sacrificing care.

Life Insurance
It’s difficult to think about life insurance for a child, but it’s practical. But not just for covering the final expenses should the unthinkable occur. By locking in rates as a child and allowing cash values to begin accruing, you create a financial head start for your kids as they move into adulthood.
