Since I talked about life insurance, obviously I'm talking about cases where your life is on the line. So does that mean you should never do anything that might get you killed if you have children? Even if you have life insurance?

You should probably avoid things that cause life insurance rates to jump up. That's a good barometer for excessive risk.

>Even if you have life insurance?

Parents and money are not substitute goods. Life insurance is helpful for financial security, but it doesn't account for the detriment to being raised by a single parent.

That's at least a reasonable criterion. I would be interested to see data on the impact of cave diving on life insurance rates.

I already agreed with that upthread.
