Should parents take out life insurance policies for their kids?

If you have one or several children, you may have wondered whether it is financially wise to take out a life insurance policy for them. Although no parent wants to imagine the loss of a child, it is important to understand how life insurance works and how it can provide financial protection. In some cases, purchasing a policy can also support your child’s financial future as they grow into adolescence and adulthood.

925 Partners can help you evaluate whether children’s life insurance is a practical and beneficial choice for your family.

Life Insurance for Kids

Purchasing a life insurance policy for your child offers several advantages. One benefit is guaranteed future insurability, meaning your child can retain coverage later in life even if health conditions develop. Many child-related policies also build cash value over time, which may be used to meet future financial needs.

Coverage amounts for children are usually lower than those available for adults. However, having some coverage in place is often more valuable than having none, especially compared to savings or investment accounts that may take much longer to accumulate equivalent funds.

Financial Protection and Peace of Mind

A life insurance policy for your child can provide financial protection if the unexpected occurs. Many policies can cover biological, adopted, and stepchildren.

Children’s life insurance policies typically remain active until a specified age, often in the mid to late 20s. Although the death benefit is not usually comparable to that of an adult who has worked for many years, it may still provide meaningful support during a difficult time.

Why Life Insurance Is More Than a Benefit for Your Heirs

Life insurance has a reputation for providing money to the owner’s beneficiaries. That means the policy pays out when the person who owned the policy has died. However, life insurance can also benefit the policy owner while they’re still alive. At 925 Partners in Jacksonville, FL, we’re here to help you understand how life insurance can be used as a financial asset.

Understanding Permanent Life Insurance Policies

The types of insurance policies that function as a financial asset are known as permanent life insurance policies. They get this designation because you hold the policy throughout your life. That is, once you buy the policy, you pay toward it for as long as you’re alive. Policies known as whole life and universal life are permanent life insurance policies.

Using Your Life Insurance for Financial Support

Part of your monthly premium is set aside into an account known as a cash value account. As you make payments toward your policy, the balance grows. Some policies pay interest on the balance as well, which makes it grow faster. Once the account has reached a specific threshold, you can use the money for various purposes. They include:

  • Using the policy as loan collateral 

  • Borrowing money from the fund

  • Cashing out the policy and redeeming the balance

  • Withdraw funds for keeping
