As a stay at home parent, you're likely to have many questions regarding family term life insurance. Chief among them should be, how would you support your family if your spouse died? It is natural to want to avoid thinking about the untimely death of someone you love so much, but failing to plan for the future is nothing short of dangerous. It is best to expect the best, but have a plan for the worst, just in case. Dealing with the death of a loved one is a hundred times more painful if you are also struggling to survive financially at the same time.

Just how much family term life insurance do you need? You need enough life insurance to ensure you can pay all funeral expenses, taxes, and bills, including college tuition and mortgage payments for the rest of your life--or at the very least, until you can afford to pay for everything on your own, while trying to raise a family as a single parent.

Do you need life insurance for yourself? As a stay at home parent, you might consider getting family term life insurance for yourself to cover the cost of daycare for the children, in the event of death when the children are still young. However, it is best to make sure the higher-earning spouse is covered first for your own security.
