Deciding whether your child should be a primary or contingent beneficiary depends on your family structure and financial preferences. If you trust your child to handle funds responsibly and they are of age, a primary designation may be appropriate. Conversely, if you want to ensure a secondary layer of protection, naming another reliable adult as the primary might be best, with your child as the contingent beneficiary.
