Astounding as it may be, this startling fact should have every single parent rushing to financial professionals across America. According to a recent press release by Genworth Financial, Inc, "69% of single parents with children living at home and 59% of those who do not have children living at home - have no life insurance."
As a single parent this fact has to hit home. The light bulb just went off; you are now considering why this fact is so alarming. Imagine all you do for your children. Now, imagine if you weren't here to do it. The uninsured are at risk, but the single parents' situation is rather precarious. Life insurance companies have recognized the need to take the fear out of life insurance through education. Insurance companies provide easy to use online tools which help assess coverage needs. Today's tools are more robust than ever and allow for customization.
Their future depends on you.
Have you ever asked your children what they want to be when they grow up, they dream big. As parents we provide so that our children's dreams are turned into reality. If your children can think about their futures, surely you can as well.
