Answer to Question 1

The student should assert that the number one reason for child poverty in the U.S. is economics. Women raising children without partners usually do not receive child support. Children spend time in inadequate daycare situations. The parent(s) have less time to spend with their children to supervise and help with homework. Ten percent of America's children have no health care coverage. These children are more at risk for out of wedlock pregnancies, early marriage, dropping out, substance abuse, and criminal behaviors. These are all risk factors for continuing the cycle of poverty.
