Question

How would you describe the effect of poverty on children

Answer 1

I would say that it’s horrible, children in places like Nepal have to work and don’t have education. They don’t have clean water and sometimes not enough food.

Answer 2

Children especially teens are often the victims of this often life-long tragity that many suffer. For teens, this means a greater risk of poor academic achivement, neglect/abuse, heath issues, and mental/emotional damage. For a child having to stand out holding a sign that says, "Please help, No Home or food" can be just so embarrasing. Also seeing other children with friends can bring a child in poverty down.
