4. Organic food for infant?
5. Dental insurance for infant?
6. Money for swim lessons for infant (to prevent drowning).
7. Adequate life insurance for parents (to care for child in case of parent death)?
8. Adequate long term care insurance for parents( to care for child in case of parent disability)?
etc.

yeah, I think preventing a serious injury to a baby is worth all of those. You are probably the person who buys an old clunker for your kid to drive so that when he wrecks it, the car won't cost much.
