The human life is a combination of
happiness and sorrows. It is impossible to know when we might face a big
difficulties and emotional troubles in life. We all have to go through a bad
phase at some time in our life which leads to stress in our lives.
Child Poverty has been an ongoing issue
throughout the world for decades. The children in society today living in
poverty is increasing daily. The majority of these children are from
single-parent homes where sometimes parents are not working or have become
disabled and therefore cannot work. Children who are raised in foster
care and leave as adults do not have strong relationship ties most of the time
and are at an increased risk for experiencing poverty, early parenthood and
homelessness . The reason for most of the poverty in the India is due to low
family incomes.
Poverty is a disease. A disease that clogs our government system as it
is something there is no cure for, at least not yet. Poverty is
declining, but the reasons for families still living in poverty continue to
grow. When there are no jobs or no opportunities, or losing one's job
due to illness or debilitating injury, a family can find themselves in the lap
of poverty without realizing how they got into the situation.
What is poverty? Poverty can be explained to be lacking the resources to
meet the basic needs for healthy living. By not having insufficient income to
provide food, shelter and clothing needed to preserve health for oneself or
one's family. What is meant by income here, besides the wage of a job,
are food stamps, school lunches and public housing? Poverty is visible
to most of us when we see a homeless person on the street asking for money or
food. Or on television when we see the poor countries and the plight of the
children among the communities where there is a shortage of food.
Poverty has many faces; it changes from place and place and can be described in
many ways. Poverty is not having freedom and leaves one feeling
powerless. People want to escape poverty and most cannot.
We've seen poverty and healthcare become a
problem dating back the great depression, World War I and World War II. Also
the problem of child poverty is a huge concern in other ends of the world. In
this paper I will talk to you about child poverty at a glance fallowed by
poverty levels in different places
We all have an idea of what poverty is, but
too many it's just a topic that is put off that is not strongly talked about.
According to UNICEF they have defined Child Poverty as “environment that is
damaging to their mental, physical, emotional and spiritual development."
They touch on the facts. Kids who don't start off with a nutritious meal or
partake in hazardous work already affect a child's state of mind. UNICEF best
describes the variables. "Living in an environment that provides little
stimulation or emotional support to children, on the other hand can remove many
of the positive effects of growing up in a materially rich household."
Children are supposed to shape the future. A parent who gives their child the
idea they can become whatever they wish as long as they truly apply themselves
is great words of encouragement, but there's always the what if’s of the world.
It starts off by social class. Today everything is covered by media whether we
look at it or not. Media outlets all over the world cover some form of poverty,
but not much on kids. Who's to blame? Is there anyone to blame? How we define
poverty can be different based on government standards of living. Some people
think that you choose to live below the standard level and "choose"
poverty based on being lazy, and only relying on welfare or just being weak and
there are also who are less fortunate. Child poverty is looked from the
perspective that it has to have a beginning, but what is the beginning? Whereas
the rising cost of healthcare in today’s economy is in desperate need of
reform. The cost of healthcare has affected the number of people able to
receive medical care. Individuals are suffering more than ever because of the
inability to receive medical attention when it’s needed.
The rising cost of healthcare is going to continue to rise year after year.
This is making it harder and harder on working class to receive medical care.
It is even harder on the unemployed. There are many aspects that play a role in
improving our health system, but the three major factors are preventive care,
accessibility and health care reform. Studies show that preventive medicine can
decrease cost and have a better treatment outcome. Better access presumably
improves health outcomes. Each community should have some form of health clinic
that patients can go for care. Health care reform is greatly needed in India in
order to be up to standard with the other countries that are leading the world
in health care and life expectancy. With mandatory health insurance all
citizens will be able to have access to a doctor without an excuse before a
minor problem becomes a major or long term expense.
Health is related deeply to life-style.
Ideal health will however, always remains a mirage, because everything in our
life is subject to change. Health may be described as a potentiality—the
ability of an individual or a social group to modify himself or itself
continually, in the face of changing conditions of life not only, in order to
function better in the present but also to prepare for the future.
