abstract: 'Poverty during childhood raises a number of policy challenges. The
|
||||
|
||||
earliest years are critical in terms of future cognitive and emotional
|
||||
|
||||
development and early health outcomes, and have long-lasting
|
||||
|
||||
consequences on future health. In this article child poverty in the
|
||||
|
||||
United States is compared with a set of other developed countries. To
|
||||
|
||||
the surprise of few, results show that child poverty is high in the
|
||||
|
||||
United States. But why is poverty so much higher in the United States
|
||||
|
||||
than in other rich nations? Among child poverty drivers, household
|
||||
|
||||
composition and parent''s labor market participation matter a great deal.
|
||||
|
||||
But these are not insurmountable problems. Many of these disadvantages
|
||||
|
||||
can be overcome by appropriate public policies. For example, single
|
||||
|
||||
mothers have a very high probability of poverty in the United States,
|
||||
|
||||
but this is not the case in other countries where the provision of work
|
||||
|
||||
support increases mothers'' labor earnings and together with strong
|
||||
|
||||
public cash support effectively reduces child poverty. In this article
|
||||
|
||||
we focus on the role and design of public expenditure to understand the
|
||||
|
||||
functioning of the different national systems and highlight ways for
|
||||
|
||||
improvements to reduce child poverty in the United States. We compare
|
||||
|
||||
relative child poverty in the United States with poverty in a set of
|
||||
|
||||
selected countries. The takeaway is that the United States under invests
|
||||
|
||||
in its children and their families and in so doing this leads to high
|
||||
|
||||
child poverty and poor health and educational outcomes. If a nation like
|
||||
|
||||
the United States wants to decrease poverty and improve health and life
|
||||
|
||||
chances for poor children, it must support parental employment and
|
||||
|
||||
incomes, and invest in children''s futures as do other similar nations
|
||||
|
||||
with less child poverty.'
