financial priorities – VALUE OF A PARENT 2013 Research<br />
Opportunity<br />
10% <strong>of</strong> <strong>parent</strong>s said that if their partner were to die, they<br />
would give up work to look after the family. Without having<br />
protection in place, these <strong>parent</strong>s may have to rely on state<br />
benefits. How would your clients cope financially if they had<br />
to rely on state benefits? Would these be enough to maintain<br />
their current lifestyle?<br />
Also 26% <strong>of</strong> <strong>parent</strong>s said that they would rely on their children’s<br />
grand<strong>parent</strong>s to look after their children if they died. But is this<br />
a reliable long-term solution?<br />
“I want to be able to provide<br />
for my family, both now and<br />
if something happened to me.”
