I am a huge advocate of Critical Illness Insurance! With Sun CII for children, the return -of- premium option automatically RETURNS 75% of the premiums you've paid into the policy when your child turns 25 years old. Coverage will stay in force and the rest of premiums will be returned if you have not made a claim and cancel it later or at expiration. Example for a 5 year old child:... Term 75 policy with a $50,000 benefit - $39. Return of premium at age 25- $7000. The benefit from Critical illness insurance when a child is seriously ill can help a family cope financially at a very stressful time. But more than that, choosing to put critical illness insurance in place when a child is young means affordable, guaranteed coverage for life. Want to know more?
