    Avoid putting your money in any Child Insurance Policy, none of them give you good return. Better buy a term Insurance Plan for yourself and invest remaining amount in Mutual Fund via SIP.

    I am not agree with you >take. ULIP plans offer better coverage and returns in long run. It offer benefits in case -
    1. Accidental Death Benefit (ADB) - Lump sum benefit paid on accidental death
    2. Permanent Disability Benefit (PDB) - Installments paid on becoming disabled
    3. Critical Illness Benefit (CIB) - Lump sum benefit paid on diagnosis of a critical illness
    These are not there in term insurance.

    Plus if your wife don't know where to invest in case you are not there, who the corpus for child will generate. Most of the child plans are for 15 years plus. And give you returns when you need it for the education of child. But always select for low changes ULIP plans.

    All these addons are available on term insurance policy.

    What I had said is that invest in MFs, where the MF Managers will invest on your behalf. No need to manage yourself.

    You can opt for following child plans -
    1. HDFC SLIC Young Star Super
    2. ICICI Prudential Smart Kid New Unit Linked RP
    3. Birla Sunlife Children’s Dream Plan
    You will pick up maximum wrong numbers when on roaming.

    Why should we invest in mutual funds? We can directly invest in stocks.
    Why should we invest in stocks? We can start our own company and raise money.
    Why should we have bank deposits at 8.5%? We can lend to home borrowers directly at 11%.

    Like every coin has two sides, so does every product. Life does not always work on 2+2=4 arithmetic
    Everyone has a scheme of getting rich.. Which never works.
