Should you be worried about children’s bank accounts?
Yes most definitely and without a doubt with no mental reservation and with the utmost of urgency you should positively and right now be worried. This is due to a decline in banking standards and often times these questionable banks will unmeticuliously change the terms of an account without any prior knowledge to the owners. What this does is setup a failure to grow as intened or add more fees or higher balances requirements. If you did not request such things you should be inferated over such actions.
Make sure to put your reasearch in as some banks will actually provide a specialty like account just for children that allows all the proper acess while also actively teaching them to handle thier money much more wisely and growing into an adult someday that has a very sound and granite like fiscal foundation. Without the knowldege of how to effectively utilize a bank account your child will have a very rough adult life untill either meeting someone else who does understand the fiscal workings and how to effectively utilize such an account or untill they hit rock bottom and end up in bankruptcy.
This being said most banks are pretty decent and have programs of education for children so that they can learn as they grow at a suitable rate of understanding based on their age and maturity dictate.
Your child is your greatest achievement it is what you will pass down to the ages and in that vessel you should take the time to mentor and isntill an urgency to effectively utilize the tools of our civilization just one of which is a bank account whether it be savings or checking or even higher level investments like cd’s stocks, bonds or loans.
