abstract: 'Children in low socioeconomic status (SES) families are five times more
likely to experience child maltreatment relative to children in high SES
families. To determine whether increasing the wages of working poor
families can prevent maltreatment, we examine whether changes in the
local minimum wage (MW) affect child well-being and parenting behaviors.
Using data from a representative, longitudinal survey, we use a lagged
dependent variable model to compare parenting behaviors in localities
where the MW changed to localities where the MW did not change relative
to before the MW change took place. We also explore heterogeneity by
child''s age and a variety of potential mechanisms. We find that
increasing the minimum wage reduces spanking by both mothers and
fathers, as well as physical and psychological aggression by mothers.
These results appear to be driven by changes in maternal employment;
whereby mothers reduce their employment and change their weekend shifts.
We find no significant effects for positive parenting behaviors,
household income, or maternal mental health. Finally, older children
exhibit fewer externalizing behaviors as a result of increases in the
minimum wage. The results of this study help inform the conversation
about income supports and employment policies with regard to their
effects and pathways to child well-being.'
