            Impacts of family economic conditions on children growth

Inequality in income-earning widens the gap between the low-income earning families and the high.  This difference affects the scholarly output of the children of various families. According to statistics from Sean Reardon’s documents, children born in low-income families relatively score less than those from high-income families. [1]Most children who were born around 1950, low-income income families’ children get an average score of 32 percent national distribution, and 34 percent literacy rescores of 10% lagged by the others, 90% by a little over half the standard deviation. Around 50 years later, this difference increased to twice as large as before. At the age of 4 years, poor St. The students from the affluent families score about 69 percent national distribution math and test of literacy and 63 percent on readiness for school. Family economic income is a determiner in the performance of children in school.

Economic status is a great predictor of a lot of things in the personality of a child. They include time as well as risk inclination and altruism. Social, economic status is measured by the whole year’s household income average of both the mother and the father. Children from high-income families tend to be a little bit patient and less on risk-seeking and high scores in IQ. There are ways in which economic status influences the formation of the personality of a child. [2]Child’s environment differs methodically by economic status: this begins by way of parenting, the amount of time parents spends with their children, the IQ of the mother and her economic taste, conditions of a child during birth as well as the structure of the family. Economic status relationship with personality starts to be stable at 7 to 10 years of age of a child.

The economic conditions of a family significantly determine the well-being of the child. Most of the children from well economic families are not engaged in violent crimes such as burglary and theft. This is because they often acquire what they need from their economically stable parents. [3]Determinants of trafficking drugs, undertaking robbery, and theft offenses result from low-income family earnings among various children. Local poverty, personal, and family characteristics lead to increased violent crime. It is the poverty and quenches for money that leads them to such crimes to meet their needs. Employment opportunities and high family income are essential tools for reducing juvenile delinquency. The results show that poor childhood economic status is the leading factor in high rates of crimes. These factors include individual, parental, and school factors. The study shows that increased rates of crime occurring among young people are majorly from poor economic families.
