Your toddler may not even have the word "divorce" in his or her vocabulary, let alone understand what it means. But that does not mean the end of your marriage will not affect your child. This big change will certainly impact your toddler, but you can help with the right words and actions.

There are many questions that an account holder should ask prior to deciding who will be the beneficiary.
