devlian [24]

Answer:

need for larger emergency funds

Explanation:

The burden of having the knowledge that enough money is required to take of your children's health is simply the need for larger emergency funds. When you begin to set aside money that will be used in the future or you are saving for potential loss in the future, then it is simply an emergency fund. You are not saving out of fear and worry, nor are you spending to save on something you desire. No one likes to spend money on health related issues and no one knows when he or she would get ill, thus "need for larger emergency funds" is the correct option.
