Child Poverty Informative Speech

Many kids in the U.S are suffering from child hunger and don’t know when their next meal would come and where it would come from. Children won’t progress in school since child hunger affects their school performance and grades. If we donate more to foundations that exist today then there is a higher chance of change and child hunger ending. Child hunger is spreading spreading all over the world and if we don’t stop it in the U.S we won’t be able to help other countries. With a little donation you could be the reason why our future generations are improving, the world is safe, and there is now no child hungry.

Only children aged from 6 to 17 were allowed to participate in the study. Out of the 4131 children survey, an overall 55.50% of children fit the criteria of neglect. Comparing families, children of the traditional Chinese family (Han) experienced less neglect (53.07%) than the children of minority families living in China (68.76%). Children who have parents that work away from the home for a long period of time experience more neglect than children who are not left behind. There was a 12.55% greater difference among those children.

Cancer is the leading cause of death by disease past infancy for U.S. children. However, thanks to better therapies, more than 80% of U.S. childhood cancer patients now become long-term survivors. Survival rates can vary depending on the type of cancer. About 420,000 childhood cancer survivors live in the U.S., with much more around the world (St. Jude Children 's Research Hospital) this shows that cancer is one major diagnosed disease found in children under the age of 15. Cancer patients will have long-lasting chronic conditions during treatment.

In regards to families in the lower social economic class, Shanahan, Runyan, Martin, and Kotch (2017) discuss the public health problems that occurs from child maltreatment in families who are in poverty. Each year, maltreatment effect 17.1 out of 1000 children in America. Children who live with four or more siblings are three times more likely to suffer from neglect. Also, Families who are experiencing poverty are cited as a risk factor for child neglect. Shanahan et al.

Every day the number of homeless children increases. " An estimated 100 million people were homeless worldwide. As many as 1.6 billion people lacked adequate housing" (Habitat, 2015). This paper will discuss the causes of homelessness, then explaining the effects of it and finally find a solution

Although child labour has received considerable attention through the intervention and pressure from the international and national institutions with their frameworks and policies to reduce or eradicate the issue, the problem still exists as the underlying causes are not recognized. In Asia, the underlying causes of increasing child labour market is correlated to the level of income in the society and as well poverty (ILO 2004, 80). It is also crucial to understand that the driving factors of child labour often lies in the household decision-making process, the constraints that families are facing, etc. (Betcherman et al. 2004, 2-3).

I was originally aware that often it is not someone’s fault they are in poverty, but often a consequence of circumstance. The “American Dream” that anyone who is willing to work hard and do their job right can make it big or move up in social classes is not true. For some it might be true, but often people who live in poverty are not allowed the resources or opportunities to change their situations. After the simulation I became more aware of just how many different challenges people can face when in poverty, and they might make enough money to not qualify for welfare, but that does not mean that they can always afford the basic needs of a family like food because all

CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background of the Study Youth unemployment rates are high across the world. The Independent Evaluation Group (2013), reports that in 2011 the International Labour Organization estimated that 12.6 percent of youth in the world’s labour force are unemployed, corresponding to about 74.6 million youth. Nevertheless, youth unemployment rates vary substantially across time and across countries. In 2011, Kenya’s unemployment rate was approximated at 40 percent.

On the other hand, child labor sprung up a big issue during that time. Children were underpaid, abused, had a very low education rate, but also had to work to support their family. Later, reformers and lawmakers tried to pass laws to stop, and help decrease the amount of child labor happening in their state, but that did not help much because as the inventors

Even though they say that it would not work as effectively as for children it is still nice to know that not only disabled children are being concerned about but adults as well. One of the negative things the article points out is the fact that Lycra body suits tend to be very expensive which means that many people living or caring for people with disabilities may not be able to afford this treatment. When I conduct my experiment I would like to make my Lycra suit less expensive so all kids or adults can have chance to improve their

Although there are many ways to look at minimum wage, such as the increase and decreases, and how it will affects today 's economy it has both negative and positive effects. I believe that the minimum wage has an overall negative impact because whenever the minimum wage is increased it only makes more people recede into poverty when it is supposed to do the reverse effect. Minimum wage was originally made for people just starting out or a pay for low-skilled employees. I believe that if people can 't afford the stuff they need because of a minimum wage, then they should work harder to either get a pay raise or move to a higher paying job. This would not only help our economy grow but help people out of debt and poverty.

Bigger employers are also starting to worry about a big future penalty for generous health plans. That could have a far wider impact than the laws authors originally thought. By the time you factor it all in, business groups say, “Obamacare will hurt their costs more than it will help.” In my opinion Obama care is not helping businesses in all honesty it’s just destroying them.

Roosevelt changed America with the New Deal. Yes, it failed its utmost purpose of being created but it did refine economic security and stability. The New Deal made numerous jobs and if it wasn’t for America being the employer of citizens, millions of people would have been unable to provide from themselves and their families. Unemployment rates moderately decreased but profuse numbers of individuals were still jobless. When, the New Deal helped workers, it excessively favored white males.

SPARCS does not directly provide services to parents, however if foster families and youths are open to participating, the program model can be implemented with parental involvement as part of multifamily group therapy (CEBC, 2006). In a group, families can learn that they are not alone in their struggles and that alone can be very empowering. However, as foster-care youth children often have adverse or nonexistent relationships with their foster-parents, this may be difficult. Especially since placements can change at anytime. Therefore, it is important to realize the barriers associated with delivering services within the child welfare system.

We are hurting the future generations economy by allowing more people to roll over on their debt, which causes interest to rise. The government is only concerned about how it is functioning now and not focusing too much on the
